I recently installed the MVP 2015 Mod over my MVP 05. I did all the correct procedures including using a fresh install of the game as well as using all 5 patches. However, when I go to install the mod via the "explodeme" unpacker, there's 15 files that receive the message "cannot open output file". The 15 files that receive this message are all .dat files and are all in the same folder. The file names that receive this error are, in order: lhattrib, lhbstats, lhpstats, manager, org, pitcher, pstats, rhattrib, rhbstats, rhpstats, and roster. As stated before, these are all .dat files. I launched the game anyway and sure enough the rosters were missing, alone with everything else that received the error. If someone could help me out it would be greatly appreciated. I will also attach a screenshot of the diagnostic/error box.

I guess I could use that as my final option, but I was really hoping to at least find some way to do what I want to do. Like I said not sure if my discs will even read anymore :/

Guess I never really saw the outstanding need until now. I even installed windows on a bootable USB key I made. The only reason I didn't get one in the first place was because I cut my costs down and went with the cheapest MOBO I could find (no IDE ports) and I have no SATA disc drives and never came across a time I needed one...until now!!! On top of that I'm not sure if my MVP 05 would even get a clean read considering all of the built up scratches over the years.

Thanks, I'll try that and get back to you

do you know of any other virtual drive program to try?

I did and it says I still need to insert the disc to play...It installs just fine and I've updated with all 5 patches, the 2015 Mod, and the 2015 Mod Patch 1

I used to have MVP Baseball 05 on an older PC of mine, but I built my own new gaming rig recently and didn't install a disc drive (Didn't see the need to) So I installed MVP Baseball from a flash drive that had all of my old game files on it and after installing the 2015 Total Conversion mod I mounted the game images to play, but it says that I need to insert the disc into the disc drive. Please note that I AM NOT pirating the games, I DO have my own copy. I mounted with Daemon tools. If anyone knows how to run the game without having the disc in the drive it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!!
