The Sims (base game) won't start, even after deleting Drvmgt.dll

[potterface]

Before deleting Drvmgt.dll The Sims base game won't start at all and no log is created at the game folder. After deleting Drvmgt.dll it still won't start, but three log files are created: Sims.exe_SafeDiscShim.log clokspl.exe_SafeDiscShim.log SIMS.ICD_SafeDiscShim.log
