Hex edit Descent2.exe with the following, if you intend to apply the

not apply to a modified Descent2.exe file.

after you have selected Descent2.exe
hit the Alt+F5 and enter the code (ie. C69E4)
highlight the said string (ie. 53)
and then you right click your mouse and select fill
and change it to the new code (ie. C3)
now do the same for the rest of the codes
save it and you are done.

EE045 75 EB
F3F8C 53 C3

These operations will remove the CD check *AND* the movies, so a
medium install to hard disk will do nicely. :) If you want the
movies, but not the CD check, just change the 75<->EB values. I
suppose you could experiment with the other three movie values, if you
wanted to disable some movies, but not others, or even all the movies.
Try it and see, I guess. Important: as with all modifications of this
type, always make backup copies of the file before tinkering.
This is for registered owners who think that the CD is an utter PITA.
Don't remember who originally posted these values, but many thanks to
them.
you can download hex editor from this site.
