Emulator Detected?????

Hey,
I installed the Lego Indiana Jones PC game for my son to play and when he tried to start the game we got the follow error message "Emulator Detected. Please disable the virtual drive and emulation software." Ok, call me stupid, I don't have a virtual drive and not sure what emulation software the game is taking about. I play Doom 3 on this rig so no spec issues. Any help would be much appreciated.

Problem resolved. A pre-configured raid controller was being detected as an emulator by the copy protection software.

You might want to drop tech support for the game a friendly note.
This is not entirely altruistic, if the protection software can't make necessary distinctions they may want to drop it all together, which is all to the good for the game buying public (the pirates don't have these problems.).
