Hello.
I was just wondering if anyone knows a way around X-Trap. It is an "anti-hacking" tool some games use, however it rarely gets updated and as a result is not compatible with windows 8. As a result i am unable to play a few games that my friends do and would like to join them but i do not know a way around this. Whenever i play any game that utilizes X-Trap it eventually results in a BSOD and the error message "XDVAann.sys" which through googling i found to be a result of X-Trap. The only thing i have tried is running the game in compatibility mode but that did not work, as the issue is X-Trap itself. i suppose this may be hard to understand especially if one hasnt encountered this issue themself. If you have any questions I'd gladly help in answering them.. i dont really know what information people need in order to help
Thank you so much!
