My D drive is going bonkers. It will no longer read the cd's of the 2 games I play the most. BG2 and Homeworld, (sniff). I have cleaned them, sprinkled holy water on them and offered prayers to all the PC gods. Alas, to no avail. It still reads every other cd I use, just not my 2 favorites.
BLAST.....

Download no-CD patches for the games. Makes them run faster and you don't have the loud whirring in the background.

Man, I got so distressed when I saw the subject line. I thought: "What could have bummed out such an amicable friendly guy?"
I can't offer any techie help, as I'm not that way inclined, but I can say I appreciate your contributions and think you're a great guy Relic. So I hope you don't stay bummed out for long and wish you all the best mate.

Funny, my Homeworld CD also is unreadable. They must be weak CDs. Fortunately I made a copy of it. Never did win it though.
