Play Intro:
1.) You need a full image with DPM (mini image doesn't work)
2.) You can mount in Alcohol or Daemon Tools
3.) SR7 STOP!

What's a DPM image? And how do I go about making it? Thanks.

You can bypass most new game protections including SecuROM 7 with the registry/permissions hack.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\Scsi

set Administrator permissions to deny your Virtual Drive (varies with your computer so check each or deny to the entire group).

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\MountedDevices

set Administrator permissions to deny access there too

(to completely deny access you must go into advanced and uncheck the box for 'inherit from parent the permission...' and when given the option, choose 'copy' and then apply and ok.

also, change the parameters/name of your virtual drive as the default names given by Daemon Tools is blacklisted.

I used this on both of my computers, which both have fresh installs of XP. It did not work on them before the fresh install as there were most likely something else preventing it. Enjoy.

p.s. This has worked on every game I have tried it on. Battlefront II, all EA Sports 06 series, F.E.A.R., AoE III, Brother in Arms EIB, Quake 4, etc...

I can tell you right now that this DOES work. I have it working on 3 computers at home (all with a legal copy of the game) and I don't need the DVD for any of them.

I'm a complete noob to this, so there is NO expert tweaking I did or anything like that... I just followed the instructions EXACTLY!!!

One step I think some people are missing is with Alcohol 120%. Make sure you do the EXPERT installation (2nd screen I think). If you don't re-name your 2 dll files (I think that's what they are - keep it under 8 characters) SecuRom will pick-up on it right away and block you.

You'll also have to run SR7.stop every time you reboot, just click HIDE, then close it - this is another thing I've seen people miss... the closing of SR7.stop. It can NOT be running.

All 3 of my rigs have slightly different set-ups (Intel, AMD, # of real drives, types of real drives) so I'm fairly confident that if you follow the directions EXACTLY, it will work.

Your mounted image MUST point to the bulky 3Gb image you made... well... actually the small MDS file of the image (from this site). Make sure you have the 3Gb image and the small MDS file here in the same folder (and only those two items to be safe).

dunno why people are threating took me 2 mins to figure it out.

download the maxi mini image from game b-urn world
mount the image in daemon or alcohol
start v-cd hide
hide drives
exit v-cd hide
set battlefront shortcut to win 2k compatability (you have to do this almost every game with virtual cd hide use on games)
start game
