A mighty hail!
I've a annoying problem with the demo. I've downloaded it from imperial glory official website and I've played it until some days ago without problems.
Suddenly, when I click on hannover or cirenaica battle, it crashes to the desktop and a pop up tells me that info license are not valid.
In my task manager, at this point, it appears a process called UASERVICE7, that they say is securom related.
Now, if someone can help me, I have some questions:
1)I've never installed securom on my pc. So, why it is on my machine?
2)why I was playing demo without problems and suddenly this trouble is happened to me?
3) May this problem be with the original release of the game too?
My machine has no problem with all kind of softwares, even the most "heavy" and I would play imperial glory with no problems
Thanks to all who would help me

- it installed together with the demo, it's to make sure pirates aren't already beginning to crack the game before it's out.

- is there any change that you perhaps did a driver update: video/sound or windows update?
3) May this problem be with the original release of the game too?
- probably not as that code is more finetuned and tested

Very interesting. It looks like your copy of the demo started acting like a downloadable game that uses an online license system instead of a cd-rom disk check. Perhaps you bumped into some code was built into the game .exe that hint at future distribution types....
I play a baseball game (Out Of The Park) that uses this system. Perhaps not coincidentally, OOTP's game developer has recently joined Sport Interactive Inc, which itself is part of Eidos- who are also the producers of Imperial Glory. That game (OOTP) is downloaded and installed from the internet, but the actual game license that is needed to run the exe must be downloaded and installed on the hard drive from a seperate secure server. Each time the game is started the game executable checks for the game licence on the hard drive using a A License Control Service program (LicCtrl System in my windows XP services list)
If you haven't tried it, fully unintall the demo, reboot your system and reinstall the game fresh.
But even if that doesn't work, I'm relatively certain that this is a isolated problem with the demo and would not be replicated in the full game release version.
Edit: If you haven't looked up UAService7.exe see this...

This service appears to be part of cd-rom disk check emulation software like Alcohol.
