oh well, just like the thing.  I can't change my passowrd because I dont have a zip code.  I tried but it just keeps asking for my address details.  Bloody ridiculous, good job I used a fake address eh?  ha ha ha

Had a look at their privacy policy and it would seem they take this type of thing very serious, lmao

I changed my password over there without problems, you don't have to confirm your address. Under Password section of Edit My Account menu you type your new password and then verify it, click on Change button, that's it.

Amairani, as long as you're installing onto an Administrator account, you will be just fine. Also, make sure the cracked .exe is for the patched version of Bon Voyage.

If the account does not have Administrator permissions, SecuRom will be installed when the game is installed, i.e. before you even run the game. You'll have to remove Securom before applying the cracked .exe.

Hey Roux Smiley

Administrator account is the only account I have, I'm the only one using my PC, so no problems here. As for the cracked .exe, it's "The Sims 2: Bon Voyage v1.10.0.130 [MULTI16] No-CD/Fixed EXE" on gamecopyworld. This one should replace the original .exe after I patch the game with official patch from Sims2 site and then make sure the desktop's shortcut point to that cracked .exe.

the patch for BonVoyage is .exe file, so "to apply a patch" means to run this .exe file, but if it contains SecuRom, as I understood, won't it be installed on my PC once I click on it?

Securom is activated the first time you run game executable (Sims2EPx.exe), not patch executable. Installing a patch alone does not activate Securom. If you put the NoCD right after installing a patch, you should be fine.

Thank you for the prompt reply! Smiley Now I can safely install BonVoyage, apply the official patch v1.10.0.130, replace the original .exe file with the one from gamecopyworld and finally send my Sims to vacation  Grin

Thanks to all people contributing to this thread, you all are truly awesome.

Hi there,

I'm about to buy Bon Voyage, so I've been reading (and re-reading) all 31 page of this thread for the past few days but couldn't find a clear answer to this question:

the patch for BonVoyage is .exe file, so "to apply a patch" means to run this .exe file, but if it contains SecuRom, as I understood, won't it be installed on my PC once I click on it?

I'd greatly appreciate if someone could explain it to me, if I'm missing something.
