| posted 02-23-06 06:04 EST (US) 1 / 5 Hi RRose00. You get that message because the SecuROM copy protection for the game detects Virtual Drive software on your computer. Disable the software in Task Manager (CTRL+ALT+DEL) so it's not running on your computer and try again to start the game. Alcohol 120% Halo custom edition maps. If you don't have any of above software installed or disabling it doesn't work, while having the original Stronghold 2 CD/DVD in the drive reboot your computer, then right-click either the Stronghold 2 icon on the desktop or Stronghold2.exe and click Launch Analysis and a file named AnalysisLog.sr0 will be created and placed in C:. Zip the file (with WinZIP, 7-zip or a similar program) and send the file as an attachment to support@securom.com By reading this fine print your soul is now the exclusive property of HeavenGames. |

| posted 02-23-06 18:52 EST (US) 3 / 5 That depends on what filename the manufacturer of each program has choosen and that can be anything they like. You could write down the name of each file you see in Task Manager and then search your entire harddisk for them one at a time. Make sure you have configured Windows Explorer so you can see all hidden files and folders and the file extension of all known files. You do this in the Tools --> Foldersettings menu in Windows Explorer. After changing the settings click the Use on all folders button (or what its called), click OK, close Windows Explorer and open it again, then start searching for the files using the Search function. When finding a file on the harddisk, rightclick it and click properties and then look on the Version pane. If there's no Version pane search Google for the file.
