BV and no CD?
MutantBunny:
Debster: been there done that--If your nocd.exe doesn't do the job, I can help :) What happened when this happened to me was: I had left a biut of the Securom shit on my PC but I had deleted most of it.
You need to do either--or: Either go thru and get rid of all trace of Securom, all the folders, all the reg keys, and then reload the game. Should work. Or try doing a restor back to before you installed BV or before you deleted some of Securom (this is what I did--I restored all the securom crap and started the rermoval prosess over--got it off the second time, got the game right the third time installing (PIB) abnd I now use the Fairlight NoCd.exe. Works great.
SimDebster:
Thanks MutantBunny. I am in the process of purging the malware from my computer right now. I also set my firewall to ask before allowing the dll to run, not that it is going to run right now, but it just makes me feel better that I am clipping the beast's wings. I am pretty sure that my nocd exe is the same one that you have.
Dizzy, I do feel badly for the retailers since it is not their fault, but maybe with more voices EA will have to do something. Especially if the retailers stop carrying their games (got to sell them to make money after all). And you are correct about them not caring about their customers. I got a stupid sing-song reply about how the programs on my machine are bad and could cause me problems. Scare tactics. Which, of course, did not work on me but I could see it scaring someone less knowledgeable. My not buying their games anymore will only be a tiny drop not added to their profit bucket, but it will make me feel better by boycotting them and it is the only language that companies understand. I still get angry thinking about the nerve of them to install malicious programs that resist deletion on my machine without my approval. And I do not like anyone, company or no, telling me what I can and cannot have on my computer that I paid for. Grrrrrr! I think I need to go have a cup of tea and calm down.
lauriej:
just checked one of the sites gcw and there is a new version of the no cd crack for those who want to stay securom free it is version 1.10.0.122. which is the patched version of the exe just thought i would let you know.
jsalemi:
Cool -- thanks for the heads-up! I figured someone out there would make a no-cd version of the patched exe one of these days.
Anilyn:
The new no cd for the patched exe is a heck of a lot bigger than than the original no cd - new no cd is 44.696kb , original no cd is 11.212kb.
Anyone have any idea why there is so much difference in the size?
