I just installed it on my gf computer. After install it still asked for cd 1 even though it was mounted in Alcohol. Here's the deal. It worked on my comp with alcohol version 1.4.8 build 1222 but my gf had 1.4.8 build 005. I installed build 1222 for her and then it worked, she's sitting next to me playing right now. So of course my conclusion is that it depends on what version of emulation software you have....

Rather than Daemon Tools use Alcohol_120_Percent_v1.9.2.1705_Retail_Multilanguage-YAG to mount the image.

Ok well i have had the same problems getting it to work like some others on here using deamon tools and various versions of Alcohol 120% but i then realised what might be causing the problem and i can only say this worked for me and this might not be the same for others but i remember a long time ago some protected games didnt like CLONE CD installed so i uninstalled Clone cd and it now works with alcohol ..the emulation detection warning was beacuse of clone cd try it like i said this was just my findings....good luck

daemon tools does the job fine as long as you use a recent version.
i use 3.46 and the game played perfectly fine with emulation on.

for the people here saying u will wait for the cracked version...

U do realise that u can grab this then just grab the 2mb crack or whatever it will be and apply it to this version...

And for the people who want virtual porn.. go get singles Razz.. better gfx than the sims2.... and nakedness... handjobs.. hardcore sex etc Razz

Tried that, but it appears not to install anything, just says components are ready for use.

Must already have that DX version, as I have SP2 as well.

Well this anything else that i've tried with SP2 works flawlessly, and seeing as Maller has the same issue, but with a Geforce makes me think its more likely a game bug and not the Cat's as I first thought....they are usually to blame most of the time Wink
