Nope, none of those work... Tried both combinations on all the executables on the disc and on the hard drive and doesn't make a difference.
It wouldn't have to do with the CD could it? Mine's all scratched on the bottom...

but Nero ScanDisc says it's 100% good.
Edit: Would anyone know how to make the game run on the files on the HD if I copy everything on the CD? If it's run on my CD-ROM the lip-sync is out because of big .avi and it really bugs me!
