Default

OK let me tell u the solution. The PC verson of this game is really bad. Try playing this game on the PS instead if u can. Anyways, I faced the same problem with the PC version & here is the solution-

1. Install the game only in the default directory ( I think its the c:/program files/MGS or something like that). The run the update patch provided on the CD.

The reason u find this problem is that the PC version is really badly designed. You absolutely have to install the patch to get the game to work or else it will keep asking u for the CD. And the patch gets installed only in the default diectory & nowhere else. So if u have installed the game in any other directory other than the default directory, & then try to run the patch, the patch installs itself in the default directory & not the directory in which the game is actualy installed. And hence u get the error.

So u either install the gamein the default directory & then run the patch update. Or else install the game in whichever directory u want, run the patch update. Then cut & paste the updated files from the default directory to the directory that u installed the game in. This should hopefully solve ur problem. I hope u got that.
