However I never met with any success in trying to remove SecuROM from my old pc once it became infected.
If your pc does become infected with SecuROM, I understand there are some highly complex processes you can try to remove it (there are some lengthy instructions about how to do this on the internet, involving much registry hacking amongst other things). However on my old pc, SecuROM must have come from somewhere but I am just trying to delay for as long as possible the incursion of this malicious software on my new pc.
I don't know if just Sony optical drives are affected by this malicious software (since SecuROM is a Sony product) but I now have a samsung DVD drive on my newer pc and I'm not prepared to test out this theory by allowing my new pc to become infected by SecuROM. Both the optical drives became physically damaged in that they still don't work properly even after being attached to a newly built pc. I had 2 sony DVD drives on my old pc and they both stopped working properly after my pc became infected with SecuROM software (1 dvd drive stopped working altogether, the other drive worked just whenever it felt like it). There are no limits to just how much headache this nasty software can cause you.
SecuROM is really one software you DO NOT want on your pc, ever. I know that for some games, SecuROM is installed with alot more protection which may be a reason why it's harder to get rid of afterwards. When I'm finished with the game, can I easily and fully uninstall SecuROM or will it always be on my machine. Would this level of protection (with SecuROM) being installed, cause me to have headaches with some of my other software (ex: Nero and some other copy programs).Ģ. Therefore, I might get this game after all.īut there are a few questions I would like answers to first.ġ. However, I found out yesterday that the level of SecuROM protection on this game would only be checking that the original DVD is in the drive when the game is being played. But when I heard that this protection (SecuROM), which I heard was quite intrusive to my everyday computer activities was going to be installed on my machine I was quite disappointed.Īnyways I decided not to get the game because of this. RTCW was the game that really got me back into PC Gaming and I was thrilled to hear that a sequel was coming out (Wolfenstein).
