No Disk in Drive Error with Toolset?
« on: August 23, 2011, 07:44:33 pm »


               I am able to open up the Toolset, but that's about it. When ever I attempt to do ANYTHING else, i.e create an item, monster, make a new area, switch to a new area in the viewer, etc. the following error pops up (repetitively at that):


"There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive \\Device\\Harddisk5\\DR5."

Now, from what I've read it, seems to be more of an issue with Windows than NWN per say, however, I haven't exactly read a viable solution to it. I was wondering if anyone else experienced this issue and more importantly, were able to fix it in the context for making the NWN Toolset work.

               Do you have a card reader hooked up? If so, remove it.

FP!

               No, I do not have a card reader hooked up. Any other ideas?

Did you ever have a card reader or some other external device hooked up?


My other guess is that you're running the game on a Vista or Windows 7 OS?

Perhaps you're not running the game with administrator rights?

Perhaps you're not running the game in compatibility mode?

Perhaps you have not installed the latest 1.69 patch?

Perhaps you have external USB devices, such as DVD disc, hard drives, etc., a program is expecting them to be turned on or available? (A zip drive assigned as drive C for example).

Perhaps you could try changing your drive letter assignments? (Leave drive C well alone, don't change it.)

Perhaps you have a virus scanner (Symantec, Norton, etc), malware scanner or some other software that is configured to scan or monitor every drive letter assigned to the OS, in which case, something that it's looking for is either not plugged in, turned off or was plugged in at one point, became assigned by the program and now is no longer available.

Also, if your game is not updated, you could very well be running an older version of the game that required a physical disc to be in your drive to verify you bought the game. Updating to 1.69 would remove this check, if indeed this is the problem. Although, I can't see GOG selling an old version but you never know.

FP!
