How to get rid of SecuRom, NOW
Adonis:
It just sits in my cd-rom drive and does nothing.
acutally, i'm not sure if i have ever had the same problem as you all... My problem was, that couldn't instal any further EP and I always had to start TheSims via Start\Programs\EA Games... Is that the common SecuROM problem? What could it be if it is not? I first realized the problem when I tried to install Teen Stuff, cause nothing happened when I put the CD into my drive and when I tried to start AutoRun manually (that seems ironic to me - I try to start a program called "AutoRun" manually!!!)
Jelenedra:
Weird. It's kinda similiar to my problem, but it happened when my hubby tried to install LOTR: Battle for Middle Earth and Star Wars: Empires at War.
Are you sure it's just Sims games that your cd drive is ignoring?
Adonis:
NO! After having read your comment I tried it with several games! Every game worked, but SimCity 4! what's going on there? Sim City does work, but without AutoRun, I have to start it via Start! Any ideas why???
Jelenedra:
Hmm. Well, try this, this is what my husband did to fix ours:
Without a CD in the drive, go to my computer and select your CD Drive. Double click it. It should bring up an empty window, place the CD in the drive. It should automatically load the info into the window you had open. Select setup or install or whichever.
See if that works. Barring that, do you have another PC (friends, relatives, whatever) to test the Sims CDs to see if they're busted?
Adonis:
and itz the same with battle for middleearth!!!!!! so it is something with EA games? but thatz weird, why is that so?
