Community ManagerThere may be some software running in Windows that is causing this behaviour.
Try a clean boot before starting the installation: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135
I checked for any running software that could potentially interfere with the game but couldn't find anything. I tried the clean boot and reinstalling and also didn't work. I guess that as it is, I couldn't play this game on Win 8.1. Also, Yuri Revenge doesn't work quite well, it is super slow, and trying any solution in the posts mentioned above make it unable to run again (freezes on menu) and need to reinstall for it to run again (slow). Don't know if there's anything I can do besides trying to get an older computer to run them. Thanks for trying to help me though, it is nice to see somebody interested in making things work out
I'm running win7 x64. Getting same error. Wants a CD. Have tried as admin no go. Did clean boot no go. DirectX is up to date.
Running geforce 650 graphics 2gb DDR5, 8gb ram, quad core 3.4ghz. A working solution would be appreciated. Thanks
Same problem, all this time later. Yuri's revenge (the only reason I bought the ultimate collection) is now asking for a CD to be inserted. Ummmm..answers please EA or money back c:
I am having the same issues as well. Tried every fix I can find and nothing has worked. I was able to play it when the ultimate collection was first released but there seems to have been some sort of change since then. Would love a solution. This has been driving me crazy.
