What an extra CD-Drive..

[Hlebio]

Tip my PSU over the edge?

I've heard mixed things on the PSU I have, I've heard from a lot of people it's absolutely fine for my rig, some people have said it's just about fine and other's have said it's not good enough...

In your opinion could I add a CD-Drive to my rig (simply wanna play RA2 without the stop and loading issues with a DVD drive ) or will I need a better PSU?

And if my PSU will be okay, can anyone recommend a good one? Cheers.

EDIT:
Oh ffs, that is supposed to say 'Would' in the title not 'What' ..

Okay, thanks for the reply.

How do I create this CD image?

 

[Hlebio]

Just to be sure: http://www.extreme.outervision.com/psucalculator.jsp - but your PSU should be fine

According to that I'll need 409w.. so I should be okay I think..

2 main image creating softwares are Alchohol 120% and Daemon Tools.

So I assume once I've burnt the image I'll be able to play the game from my hard drive thus no stop and starting due to loading?

Alright well I'll give it ago and let you know how it goes.

Thanks.

Pah won't work...

Just keep getting disc read errors.. probably because of the condition of the CD? (it's my mates )

You can always do a "Full Install" and use a Game Backup Crack. Way smaller than a CD image - www.gamecopyworld.com
(NOTE: Only use it if you own the original CDs, I'm not here to promote Piracy Yarrrg.)

I do indeed.

I'll give that a go.. although at a guess I reckon I'll lose the mission movies and perhaps the sound?

If using Alcohol 120%, this could just be the protection system (SafeDisc/SecuROM), perfectly normal & means its working/cloning

That is a pic of what it's doing..

If this is normal it's going to take a long time.. It's taken about 5 minutes to get to 0.8%!
