Just left some racing on Kali. (Well other people were racing...I was
crashing and spinning.... but I digress)
I will spill the beans. Kali works with N3.... like there was any question.
But with this good news comes my next question.
I have two cd-roms. A DVD and a CD-RW. When I try to connect with N3 through
the internet I get a message saying I have to insert my CD. It is inserted
in the DVD, the drive the software was loaded from, but it is not being
seen. Again, any help anyone can give on this matter would be great...
Thanks,
Brian

I think N3 is one of those games that only checks the CD in the "primary" drive,
regardless of which drive you loaded it from. For example, if your CD is drive
E and your DVD is drive F, the CD would be the primary drive. Therefore N3 will
only check the CD drive, never the DVD. Not all games are like this, but I know
Half-Life does the same thing.
