Installed SHIV for the 100th time in the last two weeks and then installed the addon and went to try and play SHIV and can't get past the blame activation screen. I get some unknown error when trying to activate the dumb thing. Ubisoft in their infinite wisdon has struck again.
Just a shot in the dark. Is the error for some missing file and if so did you opt to install directx 9.0c with SH4? I opted not not to install the Directx thinking my copy of Vista woulda had it already. Got an error for a missing dx file when trying to start the game. I just DL'd and installed the latest Direct x runtime components from microsoft and the game started just fine.
