Microsoft Games SafeDisc Windows XP Fix

When running a restricted user account with fast user switching under Windows XP, some games will not start correctly. The game requests that the original disk be placed in the drive, even if it is already present. To remedy this issue, download and run this fix.

This software will not alter or patch any component on your system, it will only change the startup state of the system component needed to start your game from start on demand (on game load), to start at boot (on Windows XP start).

Note: You must be logged in as an administrator to run this application; it only runs under Windows XP; it is not needed for Windows 2000/95/98/ME.
