Always when I try to run any program protected by SecuRom I get this message: Code: A required security module cannot be activated. This program cannot be executed (7000). Please have a look at http://www.securom.com/message.asp?m=module&c=7000 for further, more detailed information. I've read SecuRom works in Wine, so why doesn't it work for me?

Bah! Okay, so I'm running WINE v1.1.43 on Mac OS X.6.3. Now, I went and bought myself a copy of Oblivion (Game of the Year Edition), but it's got smelly SecuROM in it, which I understand WINE supports? However, whenever I try to run one of the "protected" (from customers) programs it complains that there is no disk. The disk however is there alright, and I have a mapping for

Hello, I've just installed Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 Deluxe (I think it's called 'Platinum' in the US, the version with both addons) on my Kubuntu 8.04 partition with Wine 0.9.59. The installation works fine, but when I try to start the game, the following error message appears: "Please insert the original disc instead of a backup. See www.securom.com/copy for more

My config: OpenSUSE 11.1 Wine 1.1.39 I installed successfully an original software to learn English (24/7 English Course, Porto Editora, Portugal).

So here is my concern. If I install a windows program that happens to include SecuROM, where will SecuROM go? Will I get the same kind of system instability in Ubuntu as I did in windows? I read the FAQ, and the list of WINE Apps, but I couldn't find any information about it beyond that it appears to run Spore and SecuROM. After my last experience with SecuROM on windows (and current lawsuit

I'm a first-time Linux and Wine user, and I don't understand how to run Wine yet. I have Mint Elyssa, and I am trying to install Spore. When I try to run autorun.exe, this message appears: Error starting autorun program: Permission Denied I got this same message before and after installing Wine. Does this have anything to do with Securom, or am I just not understanding Wine?

I'm on Ubuntu 11.04 and Wine 1.3.20. I've been trying to run The Witcher 2 but with no success. I've installed vcrun2010 with winetricks and downloaded mfcu100.dll (to system32) because that's what showed up to be missing when runnig game from terminal. Now all I get is this message: fixme:heap:HeapSetInformation (nil) 1 (nil) 0 and I have no clue what it means. I have the

Hello wineusers, devs and all other people, i have some sort of strange problem with wine. I installed Warcraft III and Securom did not work. That's why i have to use fixed .exe-files to play without the machine to complain about the missing CD-ROM. at first i thought this happens because the wine-version in debian sid is fairly old. But after compiling a wine from CVS with that

I have a significant problem running WINE with some programs. WINE will appear to run them just fine, but there will be this "Blinking" when I try to access the menus which make it hard to close. In one case, it also changed resolution so when I used alt-tab I had ALLOT of trouble getting back into it. I know I can use the terminal to type Code: $ wine taskmgr But when I program is

Alright.. so.. it seems the newly released game, spore, almost works with wine.. with a few exceptions.. there is some graphical errors that apparently seems to be able to be fixed. I found a place on the internet where a guy have posted a blog entry on how to make it working... except.. I cant seem to figure out how to follow that guide. See it here: http://ericbetts.org/node/91 Can anyone

Hi, While running Spore (steam version) on 1.1.42 with a GeForce 8600GT on Arch Linux x86-64, everything worked fine except for occasional DxDllReg.exe crashes. I have since replaced the card with an ATi Radeon HD4800 and the user interface now unbearably flickers, garbles (inflated bits of text and other UI elements appearing randomly) and generally looks far from correct (to the point where I

I noticed while backing up my MacBook's /Users after I bricked it is this: /Users/USERNAME/Library/Preferences/SPORE Creature Creator Preferences/wineserver-HOSTNAME.DNS.TLD-USERNAME then I noticed the SPORE Creature Creator also had dlls and other win32 stuff Am I crazy or SPORE Creature Creator for Mac is just normal Spore Creature Creator with Transgaming? PS. the bricking of my MacBook

So far I have tried using 4 programs with WINE so far and I have not been able to get any of them to work right. An Emulator program kept blinking, a small desktop application called "catwalk" also was blinking. It took me a while to get those programs closed because of the blinking. I also tried installing the Windows Version of TrueCrypt. It had an error on install. Files were

Hi. I'm using Fedora 9 (x86_64) and Wine 1.1.5. I updated my kernel today (my kernel version is 2.6.26.5-45.fc9.x86_64), and since then Spore stopped working (crashing at startup). I found a log file in Spore's folder, and uploaded it to my server.

After 1 day of work i finally got NWN2 working. The game starts, and everything seems to work. (even the Securom copyright protection). But in the game I have a big problem: the FPS are around 0.5. :( I have tried some things, but I'm am not experienced enough with wine, to fix this issue. (Others have 30 FPS with similar hardware) The things I have done: Added the Direct3D Registry Keys

Here's my main reply: http://pastebin.com/3zq1r9pF . Basically I say that two tools, WhatChanged and RegShot, might not only help this situation out, but help get other programs to work in WINE. Also, I have links to other places in there and explain a little about SecuROM and why you need the disc (or emulate a disc) to START the game, but you can take it out later. Myth 11 and WINE's

hi guys :) I would like to play SPORE with wine. I have read a lot of commands that this should be possible with the current wine build (witch special patch). My problem is, that SPORE doesn't like my graphiccard. So it alerts that my GC isn't supported by the game. Is it possible to change the graphiccard ID string, that wine will given to the game? greets from germany Hauke

I trying to play my games Oblivion and Spore. I almost got oblivion to work but when I click create new game it freezes and forces me to quit it, not to mention it's really slow and skips. It's not my computer because it exceeds the requirements by far. And then spore won't even start.

Hi guys question: In many games there is still need for a no cd Patch/Crack. How is the status of fixing those. The reason because is, that even games from online stores like gamersgate and Direct2Drive sell games but cant be started without a no cd patch then it will or crash or ask to put the cd in the drive. The one i know it works is - SecuRom The ones who do not work for example is: -
