Read that article on their support site, lemme know if it helps.
Also, if you have updated Windows with the latest updates from MS. Check Add/Remove programs for Update KB917422 and uninstal it, then reboot your PC and see if the game works.
Make sure when in Add/Remove programs to check the box for "Show Updates"

unfortunately neither suggestion worked, i did an uninstall of that specific update (after doing 62 critical windows updates i have been neglecting)... and the link you gave me didn't help much for my situation. the game just quickly flashes the EA Splashscreen, then the game doesn't start. i have used the mini image mounted, the original image mounted, all the "no DVD" cracks available, aswell as Procyon, Asr and sd4hide ..... for some reason, as a mounted image, it just doesn't wanna go past the EA Splashscreen sure wish i could get it goin.. anymore ideas are appreciated, thanks.
