SecuRom bullshit

I've never had a game with SecuRom before.

Today I bought Madden 08 on the PC, brand spanking new retail copy.

Pop it in, install, patch, run - ERROR.

Quick research indicates that it's SecuROM vomiting on my PC.

I guess I can wait for SecuROM support to tell me to uninstall shit from my computer, but what are some common things that SecuROM chokes on?

I've tried disabling as many processes as possible, turning off my anti-virus, uninstalling DEAMON Tools (just incase).

It still crashes.

Pissing. Me. Off.

    Alcohol will do it, too, I think.

    Daemon is uninstalled? I was going to say if you still have it load it and under emulation click on the secuROM bit. This only works with the actual CD not a mounted image. This worked for me when SecuROM was giving me shit about The Guild 2. I hope it works but I make no guarantees.

    Thanks guys, I have been given a temp solution until SecuRom sends me their fix.

    Oddly enough, yes, uninstalling Deamon Tools did nothing.

    However, I have also read that apparently it doesn't like certain Nero applications either, and since I actually use Nero, no way in hell am I uninstalling it.
