Slight Issue

Okay, so I have the Conversion pack installed, and it works beautifully. Only a minor hiccup. This, I fear will probably be something ridiculously simple, or I've obviously had another bout of brain flatulence and missed something, but this is my issue:
Is this normal? Or is it the result of me not doing something I should've?

It's normal ... sortof. Long story short is that version 1.0 of the game isn't supported. To get everything to work properly you have to be running v1.1. Version 1.1 fixes a lot of instabilities that would affect the Convo Pack, plus there's not a no-CD patch for v1.1, so it keeps people honest.

Ah. Alas I think I might be stuck with this. You see, I did install the V1.1 patch, but I ran into a little problem where the game would go through the main startup before telling me I had the wrong disc inserted. I tried for hours to find a solution, but to no avail. The only way I could get the game working, was to keep it a 1.0. However, this might be an oversight by myself. I may have installed the wrong patch, despite my belief there was only one patch that would work for me.
Short version;
v1.1 don't work for me. 1.0 does. Unless I'm again, too plain stupid to see the solution under my nose. So uh, yes, might there be a solution I'm ignorant to?

you get this message if youve installed the wrong version of the 1.1 patch, try some other versions
it seems like the .exe only recognized the dvd/cd with the appropriate (language) version of battlefront
i had to install the international 8including german) patch to get an english battlefront to recognize my german dvd for example

Not necessarily, I had the same message even when the correct 1.1 patch from
HERE was installed, my game wouldn't allow anything but the correct patch to install. I always run the game directly from the battlefrontII.exe.
His problem sounds similar to the one I had, the game worked fine when it was the default 1.0 but after installing the official 1.1 patch the "Wrong disc inserted." message(see image) started appearing even though everything was correct, the solution was a new modified battlefrontII.exe from SecuROM which was emailed to me within 24 hours and is the sure-fire solution as opposed to one of those "I hope this works..." deals.

I had the same issue, but it worked after reinstalling the game and by using the game .exe (not the launcher).
