    First off fully uninstall then try and get a reg cleaner to remove the crap EA leaves behind (also look for the beta paths if you had them installed).



    Then create a brand new admin account on the PC and install to that account only if it gives you the option.(temp disable any antivirus/firewall)

    before you install it make sure hamachi is disabled when installing it on the new account (disable in msconfig everything from starting up apart from windows services and programs).

    Then before attempting to start going into program files and give the install path admin/full control permission to the everyone group(also make sure any firewall is disabled including the windows one and any antivirus programs for the time being).

    Attempt to run if it blacks out again proceed to through monitor out of window.

    If you do the install to the word like that and it still says "I fail because I was made by EA" its probably going to be driver software related and/or a firewall problem on one of the routers or your install disc could be a defect (dont laugh it actually happens even with CRC checks due to post factory conditions).

    done full proper reinstall. havent considered hamachi for the multiplayer issues. dont use any firewall/anti virus.

    Will try installing it to the local admin acocunt on this computer rather than y active directory account.

    Have tried runnign as admin etc and still fail.

    Also it runs the updater every time you launch the game and it insists its up to date.
