I have the original CD's, also I have the ISO.

I tryed unzipping the ISO, and executing the game didn't work, missing files. So I tryed installing it. After installing it, the same issue, missing files. I tryed copying all the CD content into the game installation folder, but missing files again.

Any solution?

I tried on Win11 and I don't have any missing files error by any chance. Is there a chance you can say what file you are missing?

I also prefer to no-cd my games but have a few I just can't get working. Any reason you can't just use a virtual drive to load the iso?

But do wish you luck!

Can you tell me exactly which steps you did to achieve it? I'm not at the house of the computer now, but I'll try the steps this weekend

About the missing files don't remember exactly which ones, but it's logical... the CD is 600 MB and the install folder was a few MB so obviously it misses everything.

The game installed, as it should and it ran, I mean no special steps were taken. Another thing you can do is to make a directory list so as to make sure no files are missing, since everything is fine here

I dont understand you, the game installed is only a few megabytes, a lot of content is missing, for sure you did more steps. Please tell me step by step what did you do?
