Make this game work

Ok, I have a 1.6GB game file that i have downloaded (legally). i am supposed to have a disc and downloaded it figuring that i could get a 2GB CD at office depot relatively cheaply, I was wrong. My question is, is there anyway to play this game without the disc, I have the ISO image and any other file that goes with the game. I appreciate any help.

Daemon Tools can be used to read the image. It's available free online and is very easy to use. PROtip: DO NOT INSTALL THE STUPID TOOLBAR IT COMES WITH OMG.

Re: Make this game work

Any program that creates virtual drives will do. Or burn the file to DVD as an image rather than as data, and then install the game from the DVD.

Sorry, we can't give any more detailed advice on this matter. We're venturing into the realms of piracy with downloaded ISOs, even though yours is legal.
