Just trying to run Dark Messiah with Vista and it won't start. Comes up with the message:

A required security module cannot be activated.
This program cannot be executed (12003).

Please have a look at http://www.securom.com/message.asp?m=module&c=12003 for further, more detailed information.

Which says that:SecuROM™ has determined that the loader program 'Curerom' is used to start the application. Please be informed that SecuROM™ protected applications will not work with such tools.


Strange as I'm trying to play it on my new laptop which doesn't have any sort of CD emulation software on it. DVD version of the game, not been used before so I'm thinking some kind of incompatibility with Vista. Anyone had any ideas?
 
I know it runs through steam fine so its down to the disc protection on the DVD rather than the game itself.

Look on the Securom website for an update to the protection software. Darn I hate it when they put this on discs and break things.
 
Cheers matey, looking on the Securom website but can't find any links to updates, anyone got a link? Also downloading via Steam just in case I can't update the DVD drive
