How to get rid of SecuRom, NOW
neonhorn:
I've skimmed this thread and still can't find the solutions I need.
The no-CD crack for M&G(fixed portrait) is just not working for me.
I downloaded it, unzipped it, dropped it in the TSBin of M&G, took out the original EXE, and created a shortcut to the desktop of the new EXE and it still tells me that it fails to enumerate directX 9.
What do I do now? The last time this happened, I just said, "screw it" and played with my disk and let the SecuROM infect my computer, but I'd really like to not do that this time.
Any help would be appreciated.

It used to give that issue when you had the No-cd in the wrong place. You say you have it in the TSbin though.
C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\The Sims 2 Mansion and Garden Stuff\TSBin?
Try a different no-cd crack maybe? Go get one from GameCopyWorld and see if that one works for you at all.
neonhorn:
Yup....that's the exact location I dropped it into....and I did unRAR it before I put it in.
I've tried to go to GameCopyWorld before, but I always get virus warnings from Avast from that site, so I try to steer clear. Is there perhaps another site where I can get another crack? Or does anybody have one uploaded they could share?
morriganrant:
Really? Avast has never given me any warnings on their site. Do you also have Adblock and are using Firefox? That is the only thing I can think of as to why I wouldn't get warnings. I have Adblock and Noscript plugins. The only other place I can think of is GameBurnWorld, but frankly, they make me feel as if my PC is getting dirty for some reason.
Edit: This is the No-cd that I'm using, try this, if it doesn't work, I don't know what to tell you except recheck for Securom, make absolutely sure everything is in the right place, and make sure you aren't using the launcher.

I don't remove the original .exe I just rename the crack and point the shortcut to it. Keeps moving files around to a minimum.
neonhorn:
Thanks. I just downloaded it and I'll put it in after dinner and see if it works.
Yeah, for some reason, I always got a virus warning when I visited that site. But, that was when we were using IE instead of Firefox. And we don't have any adblockers, just Avast for the virus protection.
And you're right about GameBurnWorld....so not worth it! Your computer will get dirty from visiting that site!
EDIT: Thank you, morriganrant! It worked! It was a little slow loading; slower than I'm used to, but it works!!
