Sims 2 Open for business No CD..

[noob]

No joy with either of the mini-images on GCW for me either.
Any got any advice on making a full image of my original bought disc using Alcohol 120%?
Tried assorted settings but all I get are continuous read errors.

Here is some info on Open For Business, to clear things up:

1. There is no DVD version. The CD contents are even less than 700MB, why would they bring out a DVD version?
2. You can't play with a mini-image, you'll have to make one using the Safedisc 2/3 (NEW) profile in Alcohol, don't worry about the read errors.
3. There is no need for Curerom, Safedisc Hider or anything. Daemon 4.0.3 does the trick for me, even with all emulation off.

I am new here as well and did some reading before I said anything. Just to clear things up you are allowed or not allowed to ask for help with games via daemon and other tools here?

I got sims2 open for business and I am sorta used to the HOW TO parts via my older sims nightlife but I am having a small issue here with this new one and dont want to get banned. Please advise

thanks

This worked for me, with a minor addition... It wouldn't work, unless I used CureRom and created a profile for OFB. I made an image of my copy using Safedisc 2/3 (NEW) profile in Alcohol, and mounted it with the latest Daemon (4.03HE). After that, I just use the shortcut I created with Curerom.

This works until a working mini-image comes out....

About the nickname... don't mind it... I created it a long time ago... just haven't used it until now.

I guess some people need to make a CureROM profile then... Is it a matter of motherboard chipset again?

Umaynome (if that's You May Know Me), you're allowed to ask for help about images and Daemon, Alcohol, CureROM etc. as long as it's an image made from your original CD/DVD, not one downloaded illegally from the web.
