Programs like CloneCD and Alcohol used to have an "approved" list for which CD writers worked best - something to do with being able to read and write subchannel data or supporting "RAW".Īnother strategy was to use a NoCD and modify the CD image by replacing the original game exe with the NoCD version of the exe (that has the disc check removed) before burning the CD image to CDR. The un-CDcheck utility might be more useful for games where there is no NoCD available.įor 1990's games it's probably possible to make a 1:1 copy that won't give that "put CD in drive" error - provided your CD writer is good enough. ![]() I don't know if it would work for Moto Racer or Turok, but those games already have NoCDs available. There was a utility called "un-CDcheck" that could remove certain types of CD-Checks. "CD-Checks" could be a number of things, including checking the CD for the presence of Redbook audio files. ![]() The versions of SafeDisc used in such old games won't have much in common with the more invasive modern disc-based versions of SafeDisc that install filter drivers and who knows what else and leave that junk behind even after you uninstall the game. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post a direct link to the website with the information, but you can find it with Google by searching for the name of the game and NoCD (for example - Moto Racer NoCD ) I found this info at a website that has NoCDs available for download:
