I hate Securom, and I would really rather not have it. But BV is a nice EP. I like watching my Sims swim )
It's really simple, with the No-CD fixed file.
SecuRom is NOT there anymore.

It's more than that Rosie, it is more like a radical "something-ectomy".

One more time, and I'll type slowly, in case someone can't read fast.

FAirLIght has torn the EA made "Sims2EP6.exe" file apart.
And REMOVED, Sony's SecuRom completely, then recompiled the .exe file.
This is the No-CD "fixed" Sims2EP6.exe, that you use for the patched game.
NO MORE SecuRom.
At all.

Install the game, patch the game, do not play the game, drill down to
~\Program Files\The Sims 2\TSBin, rename the original Sims2EP6.exe, copy the "fixed" Sims2EP6.exe file into ~\Sims2\TSBin, relink shortcut to this new file, play game.
