Vikingo Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Hi there! Just installed SF2 in Windows 7 under my "games" folder at slave drive. Can't run the game. This screen error shows up when I try to open the game or "Activate New Products - CMSF2" I try with admin rights but is the same. https://imgur.com/a/ScTkdb All other Combat Mission titles works fine here. I have Windows 7 64 with all the patches and C++ libraries updated. S.O.S. Thanks and sorry for my english. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Canadian Cat Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 (edited) Ouch I don't recognize that error. I am running Win10 now but also run the games from a secondary drive - I did the same in Win7 too. So, what you are doing should work. I think you should open a new support ticket and see if they can help. Edited December 5, 2018 by IanL 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vikingo Posted December 5, 2018 Author Share Posted December 5, 2018 Thanks IAnL for reply. I found the solution. Turn off "RivaTuner" from tray (the util for nvidia cards) and C++ error goes away. BUT now another problem arise, after activating the product I hit PLAY and the screen want to reactivate once again. Will open a support ticket. https://imgur.com/a/SBOBPj8 Thanks! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Canadian Cat Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Yeah licensing issues are support's forte. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Canadian Cat Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 I just looked up RivaTuner. It is possible that since one of its features is monitoring they might trigger the DRM's anti tampering features. For the same reason you cannot run a debugger or some other process monitors. Just a theory. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vikingo Posted December 5, 2018 Author Share Posted December 5, 2018 Thanks again IanL, sure is that. Readed in other forums (searching for this subject) that Riva strikes some of the DRM systems. John replied to my ticket with a new key and all is working now. Time to play. Thanks for your help! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SFNativeEnigma Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Hey Vikingo I am having the same issue I think. But I cannot seem to find the Riva thing in any of the services or processes... Any advice? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
