I installed Bon Voyage and IT WON'T FRELLING LOAD! I get an error telling me that i have an "emulation software conflict" and a big "ok" button. I ran the diagnostic the help suggested and was told my dvd ripper was causing the conflict.

So I deleted dvd shrink, and Daemon tools and it still won't load. What now? and please don't say uninstall everything and start over from scratch.

I have everthing except OFB.

B:
Before deleting Daemon, did you remove the mount points?  Also, what is the exact text of the error message you are getting?

Your best bet at this point is probably to use YASU to block the SecuRom check.

J. M. Pescado:
I get the "conflict with emulation software" message also, as opposed to the security module error, and this occurs even with YASU loaded. It is a mystery why this happens. The NoCD does not have any of these issues. Perhaps some other program not part of YASU/DT is being detected as Evil.

ChibyMethos:

 Here's the error message: "Conflict with emulation software detected."
Very helpful.

What's a mount point and what's YASU?  I tried to disable the SecuRom check, but it didn't work.

Daemon creates virtual drives on your system in order to mount cd images.  If you simply delete Daemon without first removing the drives, said mount points still exist and will be detected by some SecuROM and SafeDisc checks.  To remove the mounts, you can go through the registry (frustrating) or reinstall Daemon and make sure to set number of devices to zero from the right click menu (easier). 

Yet Another Securom Utility (YASU) attempts to stop SecuROM and SD from seeing virtual drives.  Some people are having a problem using it with BV, although I personally have experienced no issues. 

There could be other programs causing the error message.  If you have CLoneCD or Alcohol 120, they might be giving you problems.  Also, old registry keys left over from Daemon or any other emulation software might trip the protection.  Use a reg cleaner to try and eliminate these.

As Pescado mentions, using a No-CD crack seems to be the easiest way around the issue you are having.

As a final note, if you are trying to play from a legitimate cd, make sure you send EA a note criticizing their use of invasive copy protection.
