DEad Space security mod missing error

I installed Dead Space from a DVD. It seemed to go OK and installed in a winxp bottle. When I try to run it I get the follwoing error:

A required security module cannot be activated. This program cannot be executed (3000).

I assume from a bit of reading that this is some kind of SecureROM DRM error. I don't see that anyone in the forums had the problem I have. The rest of the stuff is on Dead Space running under Steam. If I run Wine under the "Manage Bottles" it shows that the path to the DVD, E:/media/DEADSPACE, is there.

Is there a fix for this.

If you are using a Mac, it's probably a Mac related problem with DRM. Look around for a
way to bypass the silly protection.

No I running on a PC and not much seems to work to get it running.

Update, I found a fix. Thanks for the suggestion.
