Good luck.
1) I already mentioned that the retailer will only replace the disc with an identical one.

2) Yes I also think it's the drive, since the disc works ok on my laptop, but I hardly think that the solution should be "Buy a new drive for your desktop" when my drive is perfectly ok with any other disc out there.

3) I already mentioned I updated the DVD drives firmware


So, any suggestions? As far as I see it there are 3 possibilities.

1) I noticed you guys have an online version, I could send you a scan of the receipt, or I can even send you the original disc and you give me an electronic version so that I can finally play the game I paid for.

2) You guys release a 1.8 patch that dumps this faulty copyright protection. I make a copy of the install files on my laptop and transfer them to my desktop machine where I install it. Then I run the 1.8 patch and I can play the game I paid for.

3) You tell me to buy a new drive, which is nonsense because the disc is most likely not reading due to your copyright protection scheme. (Probably not ISO compliant I presume.) Since I don't want to buy a new drive for something that is not my fault I would be forced into step 2, but then use a crack instead.


I am a legitimate customer. I bought this game and my computer fulfills the minimum requirements specified on the back of the case. I expect to be able to play this game.
