try using a virtual cd/dvd drive to mount the game as an iso image

something like daemon tools lite free version should do the trick

you make an iso (image) of your cd/dvd

then daemon tools puts the iso (image) into a virtual cd/dvd drive

the game will run as you have a perfect copy of your cd/dvd in a virtual drive

this prevents your original disc getting scratched--keeps noise down--no disc spinning--and loads faster from the

hard drive than from cd/dvd
