Far cry problems and possible pirate copy

I get the above error message when I try to play the game. If it is talking about something like Game Jakle OR Alcohol 120 I don't have these and never have had them. And I uninstalled Magic ISO and Power ISO and still the same error message any ideas?

I also have a feeling I may have been sold a pirate copy of the game. For a start it did not ask for the CD key when I installed it. This confused me a little and on closer inspection it seems;-
-The CD has not been printed on its very thin paper stuck on with rough cut edges on one side. But wont be noticeable unless you check.
-The outer cases paper insert does not quite come to the edge of the case and sticks out about 1mm at the bottom.
-There was no cellophane wrapper although it was meant to be brand new
-The instruction booklet does seem to be official though.

I bought this item from someone on ebay who I quote said this

Also the item was listed as NEW.

Do you think I got a pirate copy OR I have some problem with my computer.

I have messaged the seller and waiting for their reply, I only wanted the game too see the difference between my old and new computer when playing it.

Thanks

Funny how is not replying to me ;). I really can't be bothered to claim my money back but might report him to some organisation body for piracy or something that would be fun. Any ideas who I would go to (im in England).
