Anyone else had this problem: Followed the CureROM instructions (and variations), the THAW.exe process starts, then it just quits back to Windows without so much as an error message. When just running the exe I get the old "A required security module can not be activated" (because it detects Daemon Tools probably). I have no CD/DVD plugged in.

CureROM version: latest 1.3.1
Windows XP SP2
NVIDIA 6800 PCI-E

I've tried the following possible fixes:
daemon tools all emulations ON
renamed daemon tools vendor name and id
deny HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\Devicemap\
deny HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\MountedDevices\
sd4hide
sr7stop
AntiSecuROM
With no luck...

Any ideas?

i had the same problem when i followed the steps in the nfo. did the profile thing with curerom. dont do it. just use cureromLITE. enable it and start thaw (dont close cureromlite after you enable it, leave it alone because when you close it, it will disable emulation again). just follow this:

1.) mound cd1 with daemon-tools (i have no emulation at all enabled)
2.) start cureromLITE and enable emulation and minimize cureromLITE
3.) start thaw

that did it for me. the profile thing just crashed thaw back to desktop as soon as i ran it...
