Securom Problem after installing original PC Game: Faces of War

[TippeX]

erm, if you installed the patch, the exe most likely got updated..
so you can either look for a crack for that patch, or try using a mini image

think the translation is like

"please insert the original faces of war cd/dvd in the drive,
for more detailed information please look at <url>"

im assuming you've tried puting the original disk in? were you using a crack before? (or a mini / maxi image)

also, it might be an idea to scan the installation folder with protection id so we know the exact version of securom we will be dealing with... more information helps

if it truly is the case that you have the original disk present in the drive (and no mini/maxi/full images mounted in any virtual drives) then you're probably better off contacting securom support to see if they can shed some light on the problem

it could be that you installed a patch for a different region than the one you have on the disk, each disk has a project id on it, if the exe doesn't match the project id on the disk then you get that message... so such a thing could happen if you (for example) installed a uk version of the patch, but your disk is the german release (in which case you'd really need to install the german version of the patch if there is one)... that's what i suspect could be the case here...

thx for ur reply

First to say i have really bought the game. after i downloaded it and it didn't work with the latest patch i decided to buy this one.
I have the germen version from Faces of War, and i installed this
patch: faces_of_war_1.04.1a_en_fr_it_sp_de.exe
there isn't any single german patch.

I tried to install this file: "faces_of_war_1.04.1_de.exe" before installing the latest patch

Then there comes a message that the patch is already installed and if i would really like to continue with setup. i cklicked ok, then there comes another message that the game isn't installed on my computer. Don't know why that message appears. The game is listed in my Software overview, too.

Forgot to say that there is no nocd-patch for the "faces_of_war_1.04.1a_en_fr_it_sp_de.exe" patch.

I never used a mini image for espiaccially this game before. I ever used only the nocd fixes. but maybe i used for another game. But i donT know anymore which.
i checked the registry, and i got many Serom entries listed at my Virtual Drives. for example f:\Razor1911
i disabled any Virtual drive. but without any success

Here is the report from protection ID:

ProtectionID Protection Report (txt format)

05:49:14 | C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Faces of War\facesofwar.exe | SecuROM Detected - Version 07.30.0014

Edit:

Here are the Search results from the registry as a .jpg pic.
i searched all entries for: "Securom"
