Battlefield Vietnam Problem

[Talus]

But isn't it worth trying anyway? Easy to uninstall. Easy to re-install. Better than uninstalling/re-installing BF:V or Punkbuster even.

Yeah but thats not the point,
I read this in this months pcgamer, this user sent a letter complaining about SC: Pandora Tomorrow, as it wont let u play with emulation software, hes point was that, software companies have NO RIGHT to tell u wat can and wat cant u have installed in your pc, so why should E_J uninstall alcohol wich is a perfectly legal program just cos ea dont like it?

And yeah hell provbably end up doing that to play, but my point is that.

EA isn't blacklisting it, but may cause technical issues. I don't pretend to understand the technology but that is how I see it.

If it could help solve a technical problem so easily, why not do it?

I mean, tons of people buy NEW HARDWARE and spend hundreds of hours/dollars to solve technical problems, what's so tough about uninstalling Alcohol for a few minutes? Re-install it afterward.

Because I like the Alcohol software and having to uninstall it every time I want to run the game is ridiculous. It would not be a one-time thing.

BUT TRY IT ONCE!!!

If the game doesn't run even with Alcohol uninstalled then AT LEAST YOU KNOW!!! If it DOES work with Alcohol uninstalled then AT LEAST YOU KNOW!!!

bottom line: YOU KNOW!!!

Sheesh! I'm beginning to wonder about you...

This forum is about copy protection anyway...not about troubleshooting a general issue. If your comp can't run BF:V, take it up with EA then.

It doesn't matter. I like and will continue to use the Alcohol software. I can play the game using the crack, and I have also now verified that the CD-R copies I made of the game are good. Whether Alcohol is the problem or not is irrelevant at this point. Maybe a future version of Alcohol will work or maybe the next Battlefield Vietnam update will eliminate the problem.

Sheesh, you need to learn to read.

If your comp can't run BF:V, take it up with EA then.

Read all of my posts in this thread very slowly since your reading comprehension ability seems to be very lacking.

Listen pal, for somebody trying to get help, you're sure making it difficult for us to help you.

I DID read all your posts and my reading skills are just fine.

Even though you are trying to insult me even though I'm trying to help, I'll try one last time. Let me re-iterate:

Your problem does not sound appropriate for discussion in a game cracking forum (obviously since you're not getting anywhere) and might be better handled by contacting EA tech support. And I don't mean just reading their tech support pages, I mean actively post on the message boards or actively submit your problem to be evaluated by an EA tech and they will get back to you.

I am through trying to help you so don't bother replying as I will not read it.
