Where do I find and how How Do I install a NO CD Utility

[Oz Rules!]

I Own the original Civ 2 MGE CD. Since my CD Rom doesnt work, I need to find and install a NO CD crack.
Please help!

Check out the utilities section. If you can't find it there start asking over at apolyton. Plenty of Civ 2'ers there.

Ok i followed the linkz, upgraded my civ2 to civ2 gold edition then did the 1.3 upgrade patch then installed the no cd crack and now i don't need CD anymore but.....

When I go to meet with foreign leaders the videos of the warrior representing the enemy is gone... the background is there but not the video.

Anyone know why this is happening and an easy fix?

No CD, no videos.

Hmmm i was wondering about that, i let my buddy borrow it for a week to check it out and was going to do the no cd thing.

Anyways he went out to a computer show and got Civ2 gold for $10 so i am getting my cd back now...
