Warlords disc not recognised but is?
Ok heres the story up till about a week ago the games were running fine, then i dual installed and then only vanilla worked, warlords wouldnt run saying that disc couldn't be found- even though i had managed to reinstall it and when it was installed i could see it on my computer, i could also click on it and then the autoplay would come up saying 'play game, readme, exit' but when i clicked on play game it would collapse and then say the correct disc could not be found. Then i uninstalled everything and found out my civ4 disc was broken. So new one from amazon got here today, install it patch it (1.6whatever), install warlords over the top-unable to run warlords-same problems as before, any ideas on what i can do?

My computer didn't recognise any disc as Warlords so far...oh, must be because I don't have Warlords...
Seriously: Sounds like world.comcopygame (I guess you manage to get it in right order) might be able to help you.

Have you tried clearing everything out and jsut installing everything from scratch (without the dual install)? The patches for warlords and nilla are global now so I would go ahead and patch everything up to current and then try the anti-funk version of the file. I suspect that once BtS updated the executable, that there was something screwed up in recognizing the disc.

I can't just patch everything is the problem, gotta play the mtdg turns at cfc/isdg and matrix's pitboss is still in the year 1999.
I still havent installed BtS, only got it today- i only installed the patches the other day
