Hi guys,

Just finished downloading the update, chnaged the file to .exe, everything seemed to be updating fine but then when i go to start the game, a message comes up saying i need to enter an activation code for the game. I entered the one on the back of the cd manual but it didn't work. Any ideas?
 
Yeah i'm trying that now, taking absolutely ages to update on there though, only going at around 10 KB/s. Thanks for the help
 
did you have your game installed as steam already?
 
If you installed with the disc then no activation code is needed, only the disc.

If you had steam then it should update automatically, if you tried to update it yourself it will cause problems for the game
 
never update it yourself if you have it on steam, only bad things can happen
 
I didn't have steam before so it should be ok, its updating really slow though, only on 18%, did anyone else have this problem, and do you know how to make it go quicker?
 
Mine downloads very fast with Steam. Not sure why yours is going so slow.

Is it stuck on 18% or is it moving?
 
Moving, its on 48% now but its still ridiculously slow. Everything else seems to download fast so i don't think its my computer and the game is fast. I'll just leave it on overnight and hopefully it'll be done by the morning
 
have you installed it with steam or normal way?

steam shouldnt ask you for one, it should update automatically. if you did it by disc, you only need to put the disc in. never update manually on steam it will corrupt your game
 
i have the same problem, and i have the disk but it asks me still for the activation key, what ca i do? i installed the game normally not steam

uninstall it and install with steam
 
I don't have Steam, i just installed clean instalation from cd and then installed 10.3 patch. Before i installed patch game was working, but now needs activation code. What should i do? Please help
 
yove probably downloaded the wrong patch uninstall and reinstall. re downlaod the patch and make sure the link is the one for boxed copy. if you have the cd you can install it with steam
