"Some community members who have uninstalled The Sims 2 or The Sims Stories games from their PC's have expressed concern about some files and folders relating to the SecuROM copy protection system that are not deleted along with the rest of the The Sims 2 or The Sims Stories game data. In response to this concern, Sony DADC has provided our customers with a utility that will remove these files and folders. Instructions: Save the file to disk, double-click it, and follow the prompts. Please make sure you have your game CD's available when running the utility. Please note that if you choose to re-install any of The Sims 2 or The Sims Stories games listed below after running a utility, the files that had been previously deleted by the utility will be re-installed on your PC. These Sims 2 and The Sims Stories will not launch without these files installed on your PC." MissDoh? Title: Securom FIX Post by: Tenshii~Akari on January 10, 2008, 12:33:41 pm I pretty much got that from the beginning. "No SecuRom = No Playable BV"... unless you do it by "less than legal" means. :? It still doesn't completely solve the issue of being able to play the game without those problems, since it'll automatically re-install it... but for those who really could care less about BV/Life Stories/Deluxe and more about getting their computers working again, it's a plus. :lol:

None of these programs can wave the magic wand we've all been hoping for though, in making BV playable without it :( |
