How many computers can I install the game on with one key?

(1/1)

Malaspina:
I installed the game on my desktop weeks ago using the key sent by email. Everything went fine.  Now I'm trying to install on my laptop (Vista) (to play at weekends when I'm away) using the CD and manually inserting the key. It does not work. I always get an error message when trying to play a battle (while the editors are fully functional). I also tried copying the key file I was sent onto the new machine. No go.

Why is this? Is it because I can only install on one machine at a time? If so, how do I deactivate on one machine and reactivate on another in an easy way?

Thanks in advance

I don't see any reason why this process doesn't work...
Which error code? key missing?

Malaspina:
Yes. It says:

 "Error Key missing (idKey): 10."

Is there anthing else I should so that the key is inserted correctly? Could it be that the problem is with the CD? Perhaps I could download again and install with the downloaded .exe file?

Thanks in advance

Malaspina:
Okay. Problem now solved. I found the install program and activated by typing in manually my key. The problem is that the number is VERY long, typos are easy, and only after a while I understood that 0 are zeros!

Thanks again. I can now play HW at my country house :smile:
