My <ahem> backup games work fine. As do my originals that I have bought. What games are you having problems with?

HL2 (original) worked fine with no probs.

Yup it's true, there's a program within SP2 that looks for obvious copies of games and not only stops them working but informs on you as well for using them. If I was you I'd unplug my PC for a few weeks and go back to scrabble, or failing that any game involving a pack of cards, it's the least you can do.
