Hi, I bought Battlefield 2, and upon trying to run I get the infernal Cd/Dvd emulation software message. The thing is I don't have, nor have I ever had, any Cd emulation software installed. If there is such software on my machine, I'm utterly ignorant of its existence. Has anyone else had a similar experience, and if so, what did you do? Is there a list of ALL of this cd/dvd emulation software somewhere so I can go through my installed programs and check for it? I don't have CD Clone, I don't have Alcohol, or any of the others (Daemon, etc) TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE.

This happened one time before with another game. I spent almost two weeks with Activision cust support to absolutely no avail. I ended up taking the darn game back to Walmart (luckily, they accepted it back), and just got a refund. Activision gave up on it (they wanted me to format my machine and reinstall everything??? I told them to, well you can guess...) But now this is an EA Games product, and the exact same problem....

I would sincerely appreciate any constructive advice, and a list of all of this software. If it's on my computer, I'll gladly get rid of it. But looking through Program Files, I can't spot anything. I do have CDex (converts music cd's to mp3's), and PowerDvd (my dvd player).
