Hi Sluggo: I was not aware that Michigan did that I just bought anew HP Laptop in a Bestbuy here in Michigan guess what no Restore CD's.. ummm
The catch is, they don't have to tell you they have to supply the back-up disc. I can't find the letter I received that informed me that I ha the right to the back-up, therefore, no case number. I'll try to do some research adn get back to you on how to contact HP and insist on the back-up they "forgot to supply," But I do know you have to contact them with some secret code words or something silly like that. Then again, as trends have gone for Best Buy to sell you a back-up, they're not gonna tell you freely that you have the right to a free one.

Yeah, so how do you find out if they're required to give you a disc? Is it nationwide or only for certain states?

Has anyone noticed that couff couff > me sure if saying EA the sims site is a bad word or not..lol ..But they have issued a SecuROM uninstall tool available.
Has anyone checked this out yet. Will this uninstall the entire game?
Thanks
Apparently, it only works for the SecuRom specific to BV. It doesn't work for the infestation due to Deluxe, H&M or Pet Stories. You also have to have the BV disc, so anyone who took up EA on their refund offer is out of luck. EA seems determined to fuck this up every possible way it can. ::)

They now have SecuROM removal tools for Deluxe, H & M, Teen Style Stuff, Bon Voyage & said they are working on one pet stories too. I did try them they removed all of SecuROM it very quickly.
It does not un-install your games.

I saw the additional tools. Does anyone know if they work on Vista?
