Move the game to another disk...

[Palmita_06]

I was trying to move the game to another disk, when I copied everything from Disk C to the Other Disk, the game would not open. Then I tried to install it on the other drive and got a CD Patch error. Now I'm crazy copying all my files and my player. What can I do now??

I had problems copying the game to another drive due to fact you installed the game to the C;/ drive. The game is still pointing to the C:/ drive in the windows registry. I believe that is your issue. Depending on if you copied to let's say D:/Papyrus/Nascar Racing 2003 Season change it to D:/Temp/Nascar Racing 2003. Do a fresh install to your other drive you can copy your some of your data from D:/Temp/Nascar Racing 2003 to D:/Papyrus/Nascar Racing 2003 Season. Hope that works for you. Good Luck.

Thanks! I will let you know if I have solved it.

It's even weirder when you have the thing installed on an external drive which wants to assign a new drive letter every time you plug it in.

I had to write a batch file to change the registry to look at the drive letter and change the registry on every startup.

When I had this issue a few times the best thing to do is backup everything. Do a fresh install to the other drive with patches using Ben Crazy's Tutorial. Then transfer cars, mods and tracks from backup.
