How to get rid of SecuRom, NOW
witch:
I just reloaded my machine yesterday. I found I only needed the FT crack, didn't use the bathroom one at all. Maybe my machine was already going spazzy before.
SassyFrass:
Im confused as to whether I would need Daemon Lite or pro. I have never used it before so it seems very confusing to me. I have never used torrents before either, but I am having real bad luck with me discs not running ehem. Anywho trying to get K&B stuff, but maybe i'm too dumb to figure it out lol.

If all you want to do is run a virtual copy of the game, then all you need is the lite version, pro does more then what you need, and considering that you seem to be just starting out, probably beyond you at the moment.
If your discs aren't working, when they probably should, go back to the first page of this thread and the first couple of pages, and check the instructions to know what to look for in regards to traces of securom.

hi all! thanks for the thread. I just got bon Voyage and just heard about this SecureRom thing. Grrr.
I was reading at the Tom's hardware link that the offending game should be uninstalled before attempting to remove securom, but here some say no, you don't have to uninstall. Can someone who REALLY understands computers please tell me which it is?

I suspect that Tom's hardware is suggesting that the "offending" game should be uninstalled, because removing securom with the game still installed would result in securom being reinstalled the next time you played your game using the game disks.
The method for securom removal described by Zazazu on the first page of this thread DOES NOT require removal of the game. Do not uninstall the game first. Follow the steps as per the tutorial in this thread. Get a no-cd crack for your latest EP (you only need a no-cd crack for the latest one). Follow the steps for installing. Running from the no-cd crack has the benefit of 1) making it so you never have to insert you disks before playing again; and 2) not reinstalling securom.
To recap: For the method for securom removal described in this thread, Tom's hardware is wrong. Do not uninstall your game first.
