Hello everyone,

Here at college it seems alot of people play dota. Wanting to join them, I went out and bought the Warcraft 3 Cd's (TFT and the first one). I installed it without any problems (I think), and when I try to load the game, it doesn't seem to work. It says that I have to insert the disc, even if it is in the disc drive.

Any thoughts?
 
Simple solution: check which disk you're using

Hello everyone,

A guess would be you're using the wrong CD for the application, but that's simply insulting to any form of intelligence...

There's a list of requirements to run the game: you need to meet all of the requirements for it to work.

Check you have an administrator's account.

If you don't, make sure you do now. Now do this:

Reinstall Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos.

Run the application, update the patch via a connection to Battle.net, then quit.

Reinstall Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne.

Run the application, then quit.

You should now be able to access both the original game and the expansion, without the discs.
