You need to update your graphics card. My wife had a similar problem but she updated the drivers to her graphic card and it was fixed.

How about you try it again, must've been a temporary problem. If it continues, than simply try it in another browser.

Thanks, but how do I reach PM from the site. I think the site thinks I'm always offline (for my replies on this thread)even when I'm logged in. I noticed that even when I'm browsing the site, it always says I'm not logged in.

Davideo7,
The patch you supplied (and thanks very much for doing so) successfully started up the game for me, but once it gets to the neighbourhood chooser it comes up once again with the 'disc authentication error'. Where should I go from here?
Cheers.

It works! Finally a solution that works!

I've been tearing my hair out over this bloody disk since i bought it earlier this week and tried loads of different things that have been suggested as a "fix".

Thanks very much, a brilliant bit of help.
