    Black and White Original


    I cant get the original Black and White to work on my PC running Windows 10. I have heard that what follows is the reason why, how true is it? And if it is true, how do we fix it, or is there a way for it to be fixed?


    This is the Theory:

    Black and White uses an antiquated form of copy protection that is no longer compatible with Windows 10. Furthermore, since the software that facilitated this copy protection caused security vulnerabilities, Microsoft have since patched it out in Windows 7 and 8 too. In Windows 7 or 8, you can try temporarily re-enabling the secdrv service by following this Microsoft article.

    Alternatively, you can simply uninstall Windows update number 3086255, though doing so may arguably make your computer more vulnerable to security threats.

    The final option (and the only option for Windows 10 users) is to find a cracked/hacked version of the game with the copy protection removed. Remember if you have installed the games latest patch, you will need a crack/hacked version that supports this latest patch.

    So, thoughts?

    :)

    Black and White (original game)

    Well, I recently got a copy of the original Black and White for the pc, and I downloaded the free windows 10 upgrade... Unfortunately, I can't seem to get it to run. I've tried to run it in compatibility mode, administrator mode, and downloading the patches,
    as well as the p5dll file too.. And nothing makes it work. It comes up with the "allow program to make changes to your computer" message, and then nothing happens...

    Any suggestions? I'd reeeeeaaaaallllly love to play it again... It's one of my favourite games ever.

    black & white screen

    My computer has a black and white screen.....No color. If I log in as a different user, it comes up with color and when I log in as the original user, it is black and white. Why?

    Hi, I used to have my personal folders (Windows 10 pro, updated, with white background and black print.
