I'm affraid you can't and here's why:
From your description, the software requires the CD to be always in
your drive. Most of the time it means that the program is using some sort of copy-protection stuff and using some low level I/O checking to make sure it's the original CD, something that current Wine doesn't support.
You could try and purchase WineX which does support this low level CD protection (well, it supports some of those protections, like SafeDisc, CopyROM), but it's a long shot. Thanks, Hetz On 1/14/07, Alan Rubin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Is anyone familiar with the Bar Ilan Responsa or Judaic Library CDs? These contain a library of Hebrew Texts. There is strong copywright control and the software only runs if the original CD is inserted in the drive. I have got the CD running in a virtual Windows XP environment under vmware but I would rather have it working under wine. I have installed it and mapped the CD drive to d: but when I try and run the software I get the message "Please insert original CD". The original CD is inserted and mounted. It seems that the program must detect the original CD. This works in Windows and virtual Windows but how do I get it working in wine?
