Hi, I have just spent the last week trying to play my cd based games, I have uninstalled and reinstalled them multiple times and to day I was help by EA tech support after we found out that Microsoft, have messed about with the cd validation coding on windows 7. And after changing one of the codes manually, I was able to install the games, but now when I try and play them they just crash and will not launch.
