They say it's my PC causing the problem but I know darn well that's it their crappy copyright protection doing it.
After over a month of going backwards and forwards Noobisoft (aka
UBISoft) have finally admitted there's nothing they can do to help me
fix my problem. I sorta figured as much but i'm kinda glad that they've finally admitted it instead of ignoring me like they did for two weeks.
I managed to get a 1.03 crack for it and i'm now playing the game again. I even uploaded it with my response so hopefully they can use it to help other people with the same problem. Cheeky maybe but worth it! :P
