I installed FS2004 but when I went to run it the message 'cannot locate the
CD-Rom please insert FS2004 Disc 4, select ok and restart application'
appeared, despite the disc being in the drive. I know disc 4 is ok because i
chose complete install.

Thanks for any help

Your hardware may not be compatible with the copy protection, did you
install the FS9.1 update?

Thanks for replying

I just downloaded and installed the update successfully but I am still
getting the same message, any more ideas?

Hi,

Had same issue. No one could really help. I finally, finding no other way,
went to the web site below and downloaded the FS2004 NO-CD and replaced the
FS9 folder. The FS9 folder is located in the FS2004 folder.
No problems anymore and you can run FS2004 having no CD in drive.
