Antietam not working

[BillF]

I got a new computer and a computer services co. copied the entire game from my old hard drive to my new computer (vers. 1.5). Gettysburg seems to work fine, but the Antietam scenarios page is blank. I can pull up my high scores for Antietam. (I do not have Pipe Creek). What do I need to do to get this to work?

Thanks for your help.

I would try reinstalling the game. Simple copying the game files is not enough to fully restore function as you have found out the hard way.

Excuse me if this is a stupid question, but where do I go to re-install the game and Antietam expansion pack?

Thanks.

Registered at Matrix and did the downloads for Gettysburg & Antietam on their site. Same as before...Gettysburg is fine, but no scenarios listed for Antietam, although I still get high scores listed.

Did I miss a step? What should I do now?

Thanks for your help.

BillF,

See if they are under your 'Additional Battles' section of the game-- > Select Single Player --> Additional Battles....

Also, when you re-installed, did you enter the Antietam reg code when requested? If Pipe Creek is OK, I'm assuming so, but thought I'd ask to cover the bases.

All of the Antietam information, including the blank scenarios & high scores, are under the Additional Battles section. Antietam has always been under Additional Battles.

I entered the Antietam Reg.Code as requested when registering the game, it never requested it after that. I did not purchase Pipe Creek. Gettysburg is working OK.

OK, I reread this thread again and I think your mistake was copying the game over. You should have done a fresh install of GB, plus adding the AN reg code when requested. You may have to wipe your registry of GB now and start over, but I'm not sure. Then, just move over your mods and high scores file. Regardless, maybe wait on a tech guy to clear this up, it can and will be resolved.

Should I just delete the game from my new computer and do a new install since they are both registered with Matrix? Download them from the Matrix Members site?

I have a feeling we're getting close.
