Problem running Links 2003

Post by ds1941 »

I am trying to run Links 2003 on my new laptop. Installation was successful but when I tried to play the game. It asked me to insert Disc 1 after signing in as administrator. Then it said "Links cannot verify your disk." Can I fix this?
Computer is a Dell Inspiron 15 3535 using Windows 11.

Yes, I've seen this problem again and again. Replace your RuKsHuK.exe file with this one:

Typically, after a Links install from CD (I can not talk to the download version) you should install the Nvidia Patch to resolve a number of display issues as well as an Nvidia fix (the naming is unfortunate) then the Links 1.07 update.

The 1.07 update incorporates the 1.02 and 1.05 patches, the 1.06 mod, plus the Insert CD fix as well as other patches. It also provides the ability to use the 2003 High Resolution texture courses (often referred to as 2003T).
