    I never knew anyone who has had his machine screwed by Securom. Mine is doing fine though I installed from the start.

    I have known people who had their machines screwed up by Securom, but that was about four years ago. The latest versions are nothing to sneeze at, but there is a reliable procedure for uninstalling the one that comes with Kingdoms now. A procedure that you can find with a quick search around the 'net. I personally wouldn't attempt it before I was ready to uninstall the game as well, although obviously it's been done by a part of the gaming community it would be ill advised to discuss here.

    Thanks Ramses. No I'm not going to start that whole topic again. I just wanted to check before I installed that I remembered correctly.

    A well. I guess I'll take the plunge.

    I think my version is unpacked. At least I used to unpack everytime I had to reinstall. Where would that file be?

    According to the guide Rowan linked to, the key files needed are:

    1.) descr_names.txt – located in MTW2/data

    2.) names.txt.strings.bin – located in MTW2/data/text

    If you haven't got them (like me), you haven't unpacked.

    I think I've looked in those folders before...

    Ah well, I'll run the unpacker right now.
