After spending 2 - 3 days on and off (and most of today) i got the game running on Windows 10 x64.
After playing around with the driver, and it signature, enabling / disabling signature enforcement, i had the thought that the secdrv driver is actually related to the secure rom which is used to validate the disk and lock the game down (don't know how accurate that statement is.)
Anyway, it occured to me that if that was the case, the game might work with a no-cd patch, and indeed it does. And it plays very well. The no-cd patch is not something i would normally use, but in this case it seems like it is the only way to make the game work.
Recap:
- Clean install of Windows 10
- Clean install of C&C Generals (non-origin install, original CD)
- Install Zero Hour
- Updated to latest patch
- Used no-cd patch to bypass the secdrv driver error
- Game works!
Let me know if this works (or doesn't) for anyone else, or if you have other solutions.
both games are installed, I downloaded a driver from nvidia, I believe I downloaded the proper patch, but I do not understand your step 5/ know how to do that. the game is not working my me

Hey, just after this last W10 update I cannot play C&C ZH any more. I play via Origin and from the screen where I can choose between Generals and ZH it doesn't do anything anymore. When I click on my choice it simply doesn't load the game.
Is there a fix already?
