I go to sleep, wake up today, try to run it again, haven't done ANYTHING at all, PC is in the same state as last night and PC has been on the entire time. Same god damn error.

Some random crap from this protection rubbish. The people who really want to rip them off for money will do it, whether we buy copies or not, now they're just fucking over legitimate buyers. Pathetic.: confused:
No use swearing and complaining on these forums, do that on theirs. And its the peeps who steal the games (have been for years) thats the cause of these over the top protections.

But you also have to remember, once you ran the game its data was then resident in the memory including the protection scheme, when you quit the game, perhaps the Protection scheme was still sitting in the memory and causing the game to fail to load.

This can be because of a software fault either on your end or their end, or even hardware fault like bad RAM.
