 I am posting this as a question for my son...
 
 he purchased a game off ebay from some gameguy in Thailand...he uses
 it on a Dell, maybe you all know of  somewhere I can more
 appropriately ask than a mac list...They are orignal discs and not
 that I can tell pirated...they have the original logos and so on.
 
 my son sends this post to the seller
 
 The Game you sent me Installed on my Dell Latitude D510 . But when I
 went to run the game it said
 Please Insert the original juiced CD/DVD Disk and I tried all the
 other disks and it would say the same thing.
 I don't know wether it the Software of the computer.
 
 a week later the gameguy replies:
 
 you must remove the clone cd software
 
 many of game cd will protect against cloning program so, it will tell you
 this
 
 remove it and enjoy the game
 
 
 
 does anyone know what to do?
 
 Kristina
He means you have a CD emulation program running. ie something like mDaemon
or Alcohol 120%, or several others. If you or your son don't know anything
about these you most likely don't so there is a problem with the game, ie
it's a copy. it often happens with game copies that it will install fine but
it will not run. If you let me know the exact game name I can find a
replacement exe for it that will allow you to run it without the CD.

bummer
I hate being illegal!  It does say it is illegal if sold outside 
Thailand...i thought ebay didn't deal in this sort of thing? Tho i 
noticed when I went back to question this guy about this he had been 
removed as a seller. Is this why?


The game is Juiced...something about fast cars...where are the noble 
men of our culture getting their training??? angst!


The Dell in question is my husband's work laptop only home in the 
evenings...not here now...


His sister got a cheap Dell inspiron 1150 for graduation...the 
processor is already bad we think...it runs much slower than it used 
to...my other daughter and I are mac stable!


if you send me the file can i forward it to one of those computers?
