Getting a RuKsHuk.exe error after install along with "Links Championship
Edition cannot verify your disk" error. Are there any fixes out there.

If you are using a copy or backup of the Links disc, that may be the reason for this
error... you need an original version of the CD to play.

If you have Windows XP, you can try downloading the XP SafeDisc fix, available at
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/release.asp?ReleaseID=35831&area=search&ordinal=1
Also, make sure that you are an administrator when installing this patch and
installing/playing the game.

You can also try reinstalling the game by first uninstalling it, then deleting the
game's folder in C:\Program Files, and the contents of the windows Temp folder (in
win98 or ME, the temp folder is C:\Windows\Temp /// in XP or 2000, you can get to it
by going to Start>Run and typing %temp%). Then reboot the computer and reinstall the
game, play it offline once, then try it on the zone (do not install the patch since
the championship edition comes with the patch).

After writing that, i did a search, and it appears that the rukshuk.exe program you
mentioned is indeed a "no cd" crack. Try what i said about uninstalling the game, and
also uninstall the crack, then reinstall the game without the crack (you need an
original, store-bought version of the game).

I also found in another thread that this issue can come from running the game in
compatibility mode (if you're using windows XP). Try running the game without
compatibility mode if you have it on.
