Multiple Installations

Game won't run. Keeps crashing. Hopefully we won't get any posts here, but if we do, we'll try to help you out. You can also post any bugs that you find here. IMPORTANT: Don't post mod related problems here!

Multiple Installations

Post by richfed »

Certainly not a bug, and maybe not even a "technical" question, but I don't know where else to post this ...

Is it not possible to install the game on 2 computers and to NOT have to deactivate/activate constantly? Many of us have a desktop and a laptop ... same game/same user. It seems fair to allow us to use the game easily on either one. I realize that this might open the door to abuse, but is there a suitable way to accomplish this that would satisfy all?

It is possible to install the game on as many computers you want, but only one of the installatons can be activated with one and the same code at the same time.
So if you want to play the game on your laptop, you have to deactive it on the desktop at first.

I see ... I was asking if there was a way to keep BOTH installations activated at the same time: I grab my laptop for a trip and realize that I forgot to deactive my desktop before I left. That sort of thing ...

Anyway, for me, a mute point at this time. Game plays very well on my newer laptop, but struggles badly on my 5 year old desktop with a Pentium 4 processor, even with 4 GB of RAM. So, until such time as I buy a new PC, I'll be playing on my laptop only.

That's not possible with just one activation code.
