The title pretty much says it all. I've got the version that came with The Adventure Companys bundle, along with Dead Reefs, Niburu and one other.

I downloaded patch 1.03 and now when I try and start the game it's telling me to insert the disk .

Anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks for any help.

It sounds like you may have installed a patch that was not for your version of the game. The UK and US versions of a game can use different copy "protection."

Since you have the Adventure Company version, the patch you should use is the one on the ***Adventure Company website***.

Try uninstalling the game, deleting the game folder, and reinstalling the game. Then install the patch from the Adventure Company and see if the game will play. If it still doesn't play, you may have to look for a NoCD.

Thanks Jen. I just reinstalled the game and things are fine now. I actually did get the right patch for the game from the Adventure Co, and not sure what went wrong with it.

I'd heard there was a nasty bug in the game, but guess I'll wait and see if I run into it.

BTW; This game has some of the most inane puzzles I've ever seen in my life. If the story didn't intrigue me, I would have left it uninstalled haha.

I played it without the patch when it first came out. They didn't make the patch until I'd already finished it.
