Default PC Game question about normal/online without original CD

Okay so i originally bought Farcry. I installed it on my pc and played online and all that good stuff. But now i have lost CD1 so i cannot play it at all. Is there anyway to copy cd1 and somehow still be able to play online? Or maybe order another cd1 from farcry so that i can still play online? i know i could just download the game and play it but then i'd lose the online play which is what i played it for. Any suggestions?

I wanted to play that game and it came with a video card of mine but I could never get it running. I have all the damn specs but it would crash on execute EVERY SINGLE FAWKIN TIME, so finally I got pissed and stopped trying.

Was it any good?

The online play is awsome! Thats all i played. My favorite was uhh i forget the name, but basically you get in two teams and you try and take over eachother's base, sorta like capture the flag. Pretty sweet games, and yea i bought a new graphics card last year just for the game. Picked up a radeon 9800 for cheap at the time and played it pretty good with that card. Now i miss it but cant play. And my laptop of course will not run the damn thing.

no-cd patch or find an ISO of the first disc and use virtual daemon with the security emulation enabled.

That's how I play some of the games I "test" :rick:
