Error...

This confuses me, I just installed Gangsters, a game I bought today, and when
I tryied to play it right after installing it, it gave me this message:

"Sorry..

Unable to initialize CD Player.
Please make sure that no other application is accessing the CD."

What does this mean?

Hi Robb Reis,

You're trying to run the game on an unsupported operating system:

Addendum:

Apparently, a company called Sold Out Software has created a patch for
Gangsters to run in XP:
http://www.sold-out.co.uk/soldout/support/gangsters.html

As the above would be an unsupported patch, if you choose to install it,
it's "at your own risk".

That really does suck I was not paying any attention to that while I bought
the game. So I guess I can't play it at all right?

I guess I was writing up my second post (the Addendum) while you were busy
with this reply........please see my second reply.
