--- Comment #100 from Robert Wm Ruedisueli ruediix@gmail.com 2012-10-05 04:00:51 CDT --- I noticed that under some Linux installations Sims 3 will read the disk media type as the wrong type. (It actually gives decent feedback of why it failed if you look at a log file in the program directory)
I know that EA Copy Protection is derivative of SafeDisk. Could this be an issue on some Linux systems?
