You know it's a crack yet you don't realize the number of times these cracks get reported as false positives.
If your AV reports it as some kind of virus, do look into the virus type. A lot of times Windows Defender reports cracks as "Blueteal" but when you go and check they're false positives triggered by heuristics checks (heuristics checks are meant to be a preventive measure against new types of viruses that use known types of exploits)

I tested the game, it is possible to run it without crack leaving the CD2 mounted.
Using DxWnd I got it running in window mode despite the D3D8 engine and a few memory detection problems (the game can detect a negative video RAM if your card has too much memory).
