Title: 'No Disc in Drive' Error and Crashing
Post by: HurricaneAndrew on July 27, 2012, 01:26:20 PM
I finally installed RA2 Stock from my game disc to a 16GB jump drive. Along with the hard copy of Stock, I keep a burned disc with a clean copy of DSL 2.1 in a .rar... So I extracted the DSL files to the desired folder on the same 16GB jump drive. I added Noodle's chassis grid mod in the correct place, created my seperate shortcuts for Stock and DSL, and thought I was set.

I opened DSL and tried to create a team, but it tells me "HURR THARS NO DISK IN DA DRIEV!". I click cancel, as I always do in such a situation and the dialogue goes away. The problem is that it does this repeatedly every few seconds, and then eventually it crashes.

DSL 2.1 has the no-CD patch built-in, doesn't it?

Running Vista with Service Pack 2 on a laptop with 4GB of RAM, which should be overkill.

What do?

It came from Sage's signature at one point. I put it in a .rar and burned it to a disc so I would have a hard copy so I would have it in the event of a total loss and slow or no internet connection.

Try reinstalling the patch and see if that works.

That's what I was getting ready to do... I assume it's in the downloads, at least.

That's the one that doesn't work, I believe.
