There is a version of N4 which runs directly off the HD as no cd is
required.
Problem is, it wont accept the 1.3 patch as the installation says that
the Nascar 4 exe file is not valid. How can one validate a HD version?
If it's a bootleg copy but the game still works, why doesnt the patch
work?

Duh?

Get rid of the "No CD Cracked" nascar.exe, which may require uninstalling
the game if you didn't backup the previous .exe

Whenever you use a no-cd crack make a backup of the original exe you are
replacing then you can put it back if you have to apply a patch. Patch
checks version first and if doesn't see the correct exe it won't install.
You have to uninstall N4 and reinstall it, unless you can extract the
original game exe straight off the cdrom.

The problem is that the disk came with that exe file and no other exe
file
will run with it. This version runs directly off the hardrive and
installs with winrar only. Once everything is decompressed, it simply
runs from the HD. There is NO installation OR UNinstall program with
it. As far as I can tell it doesnt even use the registry. So now, if
anyone has the CLASS version and how to update it so it can receive
the new
patch, I'm open to suggestions.
