Battlefield 2142 - Problem with Emulation Software

This is an old game, but I love it.  I primarily use a Mac, but bought a Windows laptop so I could play this. (Haven't played it in a while.)  I installed BF2142 and it ran great.  Then after a while, I wanted to play online.  So I downloaded the 1.5 patch and Punkbuster (as BF2142 has always given me PB issues) and tried to play.

That's when I get a message saying the game cannot run because it has detected emulation software. 😕mileymad: I have nothing like that installed, yet I'm getting this error after the update.  I did a quick search online and saw several people have this problem and said to contact EA.  So here I am, hoping someone has something that'll help.

I'm running Windows 7 x64.

    That was a common findind from the Sony DR software at one time.  It doesn't like CD Copying software, either.  Do you have any of that kind of program?

    Not that I'm aware of.  I do have some CyberLink bloatware installed from the factory though.  Perhaps that's the cause?  Going to uninstall it now and see if that helps.  Thanks for the tip.

    **Edit**

    Just removed CyberLink DVD 10 that was pre-installed.  Even deleted everything from my appdata folder that had to do with the program and I'm still getting this issue.
