(Solved) Does anyone know if there are still clean DVD ISO rips of Grand Theft Auto IV around? (sh.itjust.works)

Basically the title, really. From what I can find so far these are either dead torrents or downloads from very questionable sources. There's the Russian DVD ISO rips on Internet Archive, but I can't get it to install on my PC for whatever reason.

I'm aware of the FitGirl repacks, but I want to install GTA IV the er, classic way (ISO files of course) and then apply some cracks + xliveless on top of the original installation, patched to 1.0.7.0. Thanks.

EDIT: For anyone trying to do the same, rutracker has a few GTA IV and EFLC ISO rips around and complete with serial generator for installation. I also did more searching and Internet Archive actually has at least one English DVD rips for GTA IV too (search GTA IV DVD), though you might still need the serial generator to complete installation.

Good idea with rutracker, I forgot about that site actually! It's been ages since I've seen actual GTA IV and EFLC ISO installations for real, and download is reasonably fast too. Thanks again!

I have found that most torrents on rutracker are pretty well seeded in general, even the old and obscure ones. It is always the place I go when I can't find something somewhere else.

That's because Russians see the value in the collective good: everything for everyone. The majority of the globe just hits and runs on torrents because we got ours, fuck everyone else.
