i installed nba2k12 from the internet. i had to mount that image using a deamon pro tool. i installed the game as per the instructions and was able to run the game for the first time. but the next time the game was running very slow, so i tried to repair the file using an option in the add or remove program. but that did'nt solve the problem. now the game is not running at all and i even cant uninstall it. the computer is showing an error as"unable to locate file/."

Edit: Removed C++ tag as it was it had nothing to do with C++ whatsoever. Added installer tag as I couldn't see a warez one.

I believe you are at the wrong forum/message board here, this site is for software developpers, programmers...i suggest visiting the game publisher's site or game-related forums. Good luck with solving your problem.

That was a very polite response. I think I might have just said something like "FOAD warezboy."

I did actually mean it - it's a bit rich coming to a site where there are professional software engineers and asking how to remove something you've copied illegally.

He didn't even have the sense to say "I've downloaded a no-CD hack for <game> 'cause I don't like a CD whirring away in the drive..."

Well, maybe he downloaded it after paying for it online or something... but you are right, that's not likely...

Buy the game legally!

And the next time ask the question at "Yahoo answers" or a gaming forum, NOT a hardcore development community site ;)
