| | Shockwave.com games and DRM errors Has anyone had problems running downloaded shockwave unlimited games once installed in Vista? I keep getting an error message that says "Shockwave.com Keyhole DRM" and it shuts down the program. I fixed the problem once before but I can't remember how I did it, and, since my version of Vista is in Spanish, trying to figure it out has become difficult. Anyone with similar issues? Please let me know. Thanks much, |

| | RE: Shockwave.com games and DRM errors seached the web still no answers to this shockwave.com keyhole drm shut down - would that be the decoder I had to pay to have downloaded because vista did not have it - or perhaps another flaw in the great vista world "CancunLaura" wrote: Quote: > Has anyone had problems running downloaded shockwave unlimited games once > installed in Vista?

| | Re: Shockwave.com games and DRM errors Well, DRM is digital right management. It's basically saying that it cannot authenticate you as the rightful owner or as someone having the rights to play said games. When I hear that error message I think of the DRM authentication as a literal key/lock. Insert key, if it fits just fine and the tumblers fall into place then you can unlock the door. Did you attempt going to www.google.com and putting in the error? That should be your first step in troubleshooting anything. -- EN4CER --------- "kandace26" <kandace26@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:CCBA98F2-08A8-4CEF-AF7A-CD5ECAA8B95E@xxxxxx Quote: >i am having the same exact problem...its frustrating cuz i dont know what >to > do either...did you ever figure out what to do to fix it? > > "DawnieMs1" wrote: > Quote: >> >> I am having the same problem.

| | Re: Shockwave.com games and DRM errors If you cannot find a solution re-post here and I'll see what I can find out about it. Where did these flash games come from? -- EN4CER --------- "kandace26" <kandace26@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:590CB7BB-5C8A-458A-A34A-E80FE5FF72EA@xxxxxx Quote: > thank u im going to try that...im not the smartest when it comes to > computers. thanks > > "EN4CER" wrote: > Quote: >> Well, DRM is digital right management.

| Vista Home | Re: Shockwave.com games and DRM errors I ended up reformatting my hard drive and it solved the problem. I can now play all my shockwave games. I still do not know what caused the error. |
