Bloody, Bleeping Securom!
Posted: Sat Apr 17, 2010 3:22 pm
A friend who shall remain nameless, convinved me to reinstall a certain game that shall also remain nameless.
After about 1.5 days spent downloading mods for afore-mentioned game, I was finally ready to install the damn thing.
I inserted the disc.. lo and behold and received some kind of Securom error.
No matter how many times I attempted to install, I received the same bloody message.
Since I had preiously installed the game (before putting Dragon Age Origins on my computer) with no issues, and I don't, to the best of my knowledge, use any kind of emulation software... the air around me began to turn a very interesting shade of blue as I muttered various unrepeatable imprecations.
I then did some Googling and discovered the culprit.. seems this little addition is often a feature of EA games.
Dragon Age is the only EA title on my computer...
Fortunately, there is a fix, and I decided to post it here in case anyone else encounters this problem:
