Mega Mahjongg: CD must be in drive - 7/8/2008 6:58:27 PM    Oldeyes   Posts: 2 Joined: 7/8/2008 Status: offline I just bought and installed Mega Mahjongg today. Installation went fine, but apparently this program will not run unless you keep the installation CD inserted in the CD Drive. Is this correct??? If so, Why?? < Message edited by Brandy redux -- 4/18/2009 6:12:55 PM > Post #: 1

Is there any way to know which of Encore's products require the CD to be in the drive, before you purchase the product? < Message edited by Brandy redux -- 4/18/2009 6:13:09 PM > (in reply to Oldeyes) Post #: 3

But, the 2008 Hoyle products require the CD to be in the drive only the first time the program is used. Once the CD is properly initialized, it is not required to be in the drive. < Message edited by Brandy redux -- 7/28/2012 4:23:22 PM > _____________________________ For More Help: Click on the FAQ link at the top of this page Then, click on the All FAQ's button on the next page To contact me by email, please send your message to pine_97@yahoo.com (in reply to Oldeyes) Post #: 4
