Arma combat operations help
 

Hello all i bought the cd-dvd game Arma combat operations and it is 1.06. I have tried everything to get it to patch to 1.08 and nothing works. I downloaded my game which is version 1.06.5151, then downloaded the U.S. version (like it says) 1.08. Ran the patch and when finished clicked on the desktop icon and even the exe and nothing happens at all. I have tried re-installing, defrag, latest Nvidia drivers etc, etc and nothing helps. I have been reading dozens of posts about the same problem and it stems from the Secureon crap. My dvd writer does nothing, spin or anything after the patch is loaded, before on 1.06 it works fine and plays well but i want the latest patch. I have heard about a no cd-dvd executable that can be used to fix this problem so im asking if there is one to download and use for 1.08 patch. I know about the supposed Secureon fix exe, but when i download and go to run it it says this "This application failed to start because IFC22.dll was not found re-installing the application may fix this problem" but it does not at all. I can't get my game patched to 1.08. Is anyone able to help me out with this like were to find a no cd-dvd executable to work this out or something, this is been a royal pain for days now to no avail, thanks all.

Errrrr, and double errrr :P

What do you mean?

Have you bought three different versions of the same game?! Why?

No i bought the game which is the U.S. version already patched to 1.06. I am trying to patch it to 1.08 which is the latest patch and because of their use of Secureom the security device it does not work, so im looking for a No cd-dvd executable to get the patch to work because after installing the patch it wont do a thing, won't run the dvd drive at all and i heard a no dvd executable fixes this.

security device? what message do you get (exact code please.. it helps) (assuming you mean the 'SECURITY MODULE' messagebox appears)...
