      Some NO-CDs will replace your Game.exe, which sucks. I can entirely understand how he lost his game.exe, and why he needs it back.

      I have one little problem with no cds, not insurmountable. Sometimes when I click to start up the game I get a message about not being abole to find the right DirectX driver or soemthing ( I forget exactly because I no longer actually read it ) and I have to reboot the computer then it's ok.

      I know you said you were talking about real DOS, but I have this game setup to run in DOSbox with no-CDs and it plays great, better than it did in DOS 6.22 in fact. :)
