My copy had this same problem, asking for the CD and then not recognising
it. Worked fine the night before and nothing had changed drivewise or
systemwise meanwhile. It all lives on drive c: in one directory. Working OK
again since being reinstalled. My system clock may have been showing similar
date to John's when the probs occurred, we are UTC +8 hours, which seemed a
bit of a coincidence. Anyway it works now and the cloud has finally cleared
so back to the real game tonight, with luck.

Hi John,

Hmmm... can't think of any good reason why that would happen,
unless something has knocked out Guide's access to the CD-ROM. Have you
added or removed any drives? It could be that Guide is looking for data
on, say, drive d:, which has now been moved to drive e: or some such.

(In a perfect world, you could mount a drive as a particular letter
and leave it that way... in fact, some CD and DVD drives _can_ be
specified with a fixed letter; you can go into Device Manager, select
the properties for the device, and (if it's supported) insist that only
a particular drive letter be used. But I don't know how often that
solution is available.)

Failing that, I'd have to ask what might have changed on your
system between "it worked" and "it doesn't work"?
