Totality

Since last night I have: 1. Uninstalled the game and used the securom removal tool 2. Upgraded the firmware of my DVD drive 3. Done a cold boot and the DVD drive was picked up with the new firmware 4. Reinstalled the game 5. Same thing happens.... I have sent a analysis log file to Securom but I don't hold out hope as Securom seem as poor at writing software as BIS do! For one the analysis file tries to write the log to the root of C: which since Vista you haven't been able to do unless you are an admin. As the file wasn't appearing I had to right click on the Arma2.exe and run as an administrator just so the securom survey tool could write out the log file OK! It's bad enough how many bugs are in the actual game, but having bugs launching it too makes me laugh.

If you find a solution let me know. I'm not happy at all that I have paid for a product that doesn't work without cracking it. Securom has been cracked already so why inconvenience paying customers :mad:

I have Windows 7 x64 and every other game I have works fine. Arma2 installs fine and I've patched it to 1.02 but when I try to run the program nothing happens. The securom CD icon spins on the screen then thats it. No error messages. Does anyone else have this problem? ---------- Post added at 04:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:28 PM ---------- Well I have gone to <removed by Mod> and downloaded the cracked EXE and it works fine so yes it is a secure rom issue. Nice way to punish people who pay for the game BIS. I've requested a refund from the mail order place and will be sending it back.
