@GLH

I wasn't able to find anything about a game named "Star Wars - Battlefield 2

Well noticed! I didnt pick that one up! I should have had a Good Look Here. Eagle Eye GLH.

After your post I got to thinking, why oh why would I get a security module error since I’m using DT4 and SR7.Stop 1.2

The answer: Gamejacks inability to uninstall its down damn virtual drive and after many many attempts to get rid of this virtual parasite I finally reinstalled the program, found the MSI file that installs the universal Scsi controller, right clicked on it and selected uninstall.

Now I can play Stubbs from a HDD backup. YAY

i thought the messages only happen if you try and launch the game using an image/virtual drive, at least for me using the original disk didnt cause a problem, backup/mounting got me the dreaded messages though ;(

security module error can be caused from a number of things mostly if anything is running application hooks (ie hypersnap dx will make the game get security module error ) or debug applications.

This is actully a bug and running in windows 2000 compat mode will fix alot of the errors but its not full proof.

Why run in 2000 compatibility, you wont get great performance from it.
