Problems with Key in New Laptop
« le: 27 février 2013, 17:30:32 pm »
I just bought a new laptop and reinstalled the game from the original CD.  I then ran the 3c patch.  I then copied the idKey.hw file from my old laptop in the HistWar folder on my new laptop.  When I attempt to run a scenario I get a "Key" error message.

Can someone advise what I need to do?

Installing the game from the CD doesn't need to copy the SN file... Curious...

That's what I thought, but after I installed from the CD it had the same key error.  So I just assumed I needed to copy over my old Key.  I originally bought it online then the CD later.

Could you send me the file 'spyboard.txt' in the folder tracking...
Where is your install ? maybe in C:/Program Files.. in this case, it is possible there is an hidden folder and you can't write the SN file at the good place...
