This would give me a clue later on, just not immediately.

I popped in the NFSMW disk and the game started to launch, the NFS Carbon splash screen came up and then the game crashed. It fired ok and asked for the CD even though the NFSC CD was still in the drive. So the first trick was to see if I can get the need for speed most wanted exe to launch Carbon, or at least do something enough to give me some clues. The most interesting thing abut NFSC is that it uses the same game engine as Need For Speed Most Wanted, and need for Speed Most Wanted works perfectly fine under Windows 10. You try compatibility modes but nothing works. You launch it with admin privileges but nothing happens, the CD does not get accessed, no process is created. You try to run NFSC.exe and it asks for Admin privileges.

I could not find any where that showed how to make it work other than NoCd cracks(which you must never get). It would not work so rather than re-invent the wheel, the first thing I did was scan the Internet to see if somebody has found a way to make it work. This then brings me to Need for Speed Carbon. That is because I sometimes still play them(at least the ones I can still get working). As the years went by and new versions of Microsoft OS's came out, I am always nervous whether my old games will work or not. I still have their original packaging, receipts, and you will be lucky to see any scratches on my CD's or DVD's.

I have plenty of video games I have bought and never sold. See the very bottom for the rest of this update. UPDATE:The instruction that is present at the bottom half of this post need only be performed once.

This same process can be used for other games as well. Today I will show you how to get Need for Speed Carbon working under Windows 10.
