Oops, sorry for the dubious posts, but... I figured I'd download the latest version of ScummVM and see if that helps. It did... though when it says I'm loading Loomcd, I'm actually loading the CD version of MI1 (not sure how/why that mismatch happens, but it plainly calls it Loom and it's not). So.....

I've tried playing Loomcd, but it initiates working copy protection every time (the same scheme used from MI1... this pirate was hanged in Barbados in what year, etc.) Not sure why it's doing this... but it is. Any idea if perhaps I'm doing something strange or wrong? Otherwise, ScummVM is the coole...
