Guide:

Following information found from various sources on the Internet in the past. credit goes to the authors.

1. Locate and copy "Cyberdiver_1.20j_dec" to the C: drive

2. Replace the original game.exe found elsewhere on the drive with a copy explorer for windows XP. eg rename explorer.exe to game.exe

This allows you to navigate with mouse/keyboard , run task manager (taskmgr)in step 4, when the system boots.

4. In cyber diver folder add a batch file "runwithoutio.bat" to launch the game without the "IO Error" occurring

hl2.exe -console -hideconsole -full -novid -game bs09 -heapsize 512000 -width 1366 -height 768 -ac -io 0 -nesys 0 +bs_ipf_show +cl_recordreplay 0 +demo_recordcommands 0

5. Go into the bs09/cfg folder inside the game files and make a new text file called "autoexec.cfg", in it insert the following text:

bs_nocard_weaponslot 8 bind KP_END "changelevel cd_map_001" bind KP_DOWNARROW "changelevel cd_map_002" bind KP_PGDN "changelevel cd_map_003 bind KP_INS "changelevel bs_map_p001" bind KP_5 "disconnect" bind KP_HOME "bs_card_show" bind KP_PGUP "thirdperson" bind KP_UPARROW "firstperson"

This will unlock the following: 1) All classes have all 8 weapons unlocked by default 2) Able to use a simulation of the card reader by hitting numpad 7 when asked to insert the card, not very functional at the moment but you can make a new card with it and go through the motions 3) Able to switch between any one of the three available maps by hitting number pad 1, 2 or 3 when a match loads. It'll carry over the same conditions of the last match you launched, so if you're playing a team battle it will remain a team battle, a single battle will remain a single battle. Do not use when launching practice mode (Although you can load the practice stage by hitting numpad 0 if you get stuck, or just quit the match) 4) Ability to quit the match at any time by hitting numpad 5 5) Switch between third person and first person by hitting numpad 8 / 9
