Hello,
I am wondering did anyone ever manage to bypass dreaded SecuRom protection that this game has. Due to SecuRom not working on Windows 10, I am unable to launch game. I searched if someone made NoCD .exe file for game but no luck. I even tried to install it on Virtual Machine with Windows XP but SecuRom was designed not to run on Virtual Machines. I currently have no way of starting the game.
Anyone here managed to get it working on Win 10?

how are you having issues with SecuRom ? SecuRom just makes it so you have to have the disc in everytime you play it which helps protect against copying and pirating stuff

you are better off not playing the pc version, it can make the figures stop working, since there the pc portal driver is not good and you could risk a faulty save being done to the figures.

Windows 10 detected the PC version of the "Portal of Power" as "Spyro Portal" and installed the driver automatically.
@TheStealthElf08, some PC desktops and laptops do not come with a DVD drive / Optical Drive. So the obstacle is not always piracy related. If Activision offered a digital download version for PC, I would have no issue coughing up some extra cash for that edition, just to reduce my software footprint. I use/used the software Alcohol 120% to create a MDF/MDS image file combination on a machine that had an optical drive. On my gaming computer I use that same software to create a virtual drive and mount the media. The game was clearly written for console and ported, so for controls I use an Xbox 360 wired controller, specifically this one: https://www.amazon.com/Skyland...r/dp/B00AAR3HIK The game has frozen a few times (not due to the virtual media), and a couple times I just alt-tab away, and back again, and the game resumed. I have duplicate figures, so I am not worried about corrupted progress on my figures I am currently using. Has not happened to me yet, but that doesn't mean it couldn't happen. Alcohol is a paid software, but it does give a free trial. Also the author did make a free version called Alcohol 52%, not sure if that one works after your trial is up, but worth kicking the tires. |
