Whether you are running a legitimate copy or not, perhaps you need to try a "patch".
 
Mine wouldn't work without a no-cd patch even though I have a real disk.
 
Now it runs perfectly as the "patch" updates the .exe with one that works.
 
PS - the "patch" i use didn't come from M$ but it works, so I don't care.

same here, I have the real CD, but it won't run until someone told me that I need to install the no cd patch. Now it works ok.
