    You couldn’t play it anyway. It has SecuROM as a copy protection and that is basically a rootkit that is not allowed to run on Windows Vista and above.

      Run it in a VM, then get the NoCD from gamecopyworld?

      (Not sure if that’s an option for securom)

        Securom has been cracked long ago yeah. I believe it was SafeDisc or StarForce that made things hella weird in a cracked game, but that was bypassed by mounting the CD back then and now I think the cracks work too
