I bought it new from Amazon (physical copy). It installed fine, but it comes up with this (see topic title) message every time I run it. Win7 64 SP1. I've tried setting it for compatibility with XP, I've tried running it from a different drive with the same drive letter, no difference.

I've also tried official updates and a no-cd patch, no difference.

Help?

Ah, I think I made the mistake of assuming that the version on the DVD wouldn't be the most up-to-date one, so I patched it. A clean install worked fine.
