Icon4 Setting up PC

Hey all, sorry in advance for long thread

Okay so here's my problem: I know my way around computers but suddenly I'm stuck. I reinstalled Windows 7 and therefore have nothing installed anymore ie. drivers to play games etc. I downloaded as many things as I could think of that were previously installed on my pc to enable me to play pc games, but suddenly NO games will play. I mount images using Daemon Tools Lite and install the games but my games keep coming up saying things like "emulator activated" or "unauthorized disk" and I have no clue whats going on :( and I'm so frustrated!

So my question is, can someone please tell me what I need to setup my pc so that I can play games. What drivers I need and what I must download.

I have a pretty good Graphics Card which is working - I checked in properties ...

Please help!

As far as my knowledge goes, piracy is not a tolerated topic on Teen Forumz. However I can try and assist you as long as the moderators keep the topic open.

Does this happen on all games or just specific ones, and if specific ones, which ones?

Eeeek hadn't thought of that!

Um well as far as I've tried, all games :(

I've installed ATI Catalyst and Microsoft DirectX ...

You need to get a cracked version of the game you're looking for.

If you do have the cracked version and it doesn't seem to work, check that you've installed STPD with Daemon Tools and enabled the advanced emulation options from the bottom right menubar.

What kind of computer do you have? What model?
Go to your start menu> right click on Computer and click Manage> here you can see problem devices that need drivers. From there, just download the drivers and install them.

Do remember, cracked games come with a cracked folder and you need to copy and paste files across before the game will work. A simple install via Daemon Tools doesn't mean you can play the game yet.

Why use third-party programs to mount ISOs? Just open the ISO and extract the contents with 7zip or WinRAR and you're ready to go.
