war3 RoC/tft "cd not inserted"

Post by soxs »

Host: Ubuntu 7.04
Guest: WinXP

I isntalled warcraft3 RoC and tft (original software, no hack cracked nor stuff) but I can not play the game. Whenever I try to start it, it bothers me to put the correct cd into the drive, although it's allready there. It even gets *detcted* correcty when I had a look into the windows explorer and even war3#s autostart functin works correctly.

I even tried to use a workaround by a images of my original war3cds and Alcohol120%, aswell as mini image, by using my second cd drive. But no matter I do, it still points out *plx insert the correct disc*.

Note: a war3.exe hack is NO option, as I can not play on b.net with a hacked .exe-file.

So,.. plx help

I doubt that warcraft will run properly if you get the CD working. War3 is a 3d-game and virtualbox only support 2d functionality.
