Bionice the game 2003 PC EA Classic CD ROM.

[KArlson]

hello
I bought and received the game Bionicle The Game original on PC. The installation went without problems I entered the serial code. And I wanted to start the game nothing happens I double click on the game icon and nothing. I have Windows 10.
Of course I tried to start the game in compatibility mode with Windows XP/me/98 but nothing helped.

Can someone help me please.

Try one of them older pc, soon ppl want a old pc or a win7 play machine.

atm i have older pc, someday maybe even a win7 emulator on the win10 aka Viatual Machibe.


ps.
I have no clue if that old game can play in window mode, this mean not FULLscreen game , but things like that has sometime been a issue old games was also made for old gpu card, and maybe win10+ is to much for taht old EA game.


Just so you know, why do you think steam has pretty much on every old past OS game made a warning, and yet i can still play fallout 1 steam version, so game devs that made them is equal part of the problem.

And also why store information aka game requirement and OS matter.

You need to enter EA forum and jhope there is expert fan gamer there that has solve this. or google how to play that game on win10.

Thats what we do for old classic games today.

So you are using an XP/98 emulator? In windows 10? Am I understanding that right? I know most of the video software of the day was replaced in the early 2000s. There is the option of buying an old PC which might not cost too much, or use one of the MANY emulators for WIn 98 on widows 10. Most of the emulators for 98 seem to be for office applications though.

Sorry I couldn't be more helpful, try the fan game "Bionicle-Masks of power", it's not an official game but it is pretty close to the original. Sometimes fan games are really good.

What is safedisc because I don't understand (but probably some kind of protection like DRM), does it affect the fact that I can't run Bionicle the game on my Windows 10?

That wiki page is loaded with links that helps explain all those little details. But essentially, yes, that DRM is not supported which means the game won't launch.

safedisc is an anti-copying drm EA used it a lot in their physical release games including games like the command & conquer series, microsoft dropped support because it hadn't been updated since 2009 and will not run any game that has safedisc DRM

Can I install the game version from the disc using an emulator, e.g. Windows XP, on my Windows 10, or make an iso file for a CD reader and install those old EA games like HP, LOTR:ROTK or HoH Pacific Assult? In theory, it should work because those games were supported on Windows XP?

you can try using safediscshim on github (it's not piracy - it's a compatibility layer that does not bypass the DRM, original media is still required for the game to load)

https://github.com/RibShark/SafeDiscShim/releases/tag/v0.1.1

no guarantees though
