I always thought - "wow, I've never had these Securom related problems, I am so lucky!" Hmmpf, that was until I downloaded the AL patch from the exhange. Suddenly I couldn not play as Securom picked up my various DVD-writing programmes, which I refuse to disable, as my games are legit and I use the programmes often to make LEGIT movies etc.
Thought of uninstalling AL to get rid of the patch, but I was away on holiday and only took my AL disc with, not the box with the serial number.
I emailed Securom and EAxis, got a feeble reply from EAxis, telling me to disable any emulation software - blah blah, useless feedback. Securom requested my analysis log, which I duly sent, and they replied with a link to a new executable, which I used to replace the original executable, and voila, I can play again.
Needless to say, when I received an email from EAxis, wanting to know how their service was, and if it solved my problem, I didn't respond too favourably.....
Anyway, I thought I'd reply to this thread in case anybody else was having problems with Securom after getting the patch! There is help!
