"Original disc could not be found or authenticated"

Been playing it fine this morning, then when I went back later, could not start up Prey:

"Original disc could not be found or authenticated"

Even when launching from the DVD.

Please help!

This sound like a copy right bug. The SecuROM copyright utility sometime shas a tough time understanding how to control your media drive. If you have access to one, try another drive.
