Title: How to install legally purchased TS3 on second PC
Post by: Inge on 2011 June 29, 07:26:33
I want to install basegame on separate PC for tool testing purposes.  EA on the other hand appear to have other ideas and stop it running.   Is there a post around here dealing with how to get around that?

Err...you put the CD in and you install it?

I installed it.  But it refused to run, as presumably the key wouldn't validate on a 2nd machine.

My base TS3 game was legally purchased, and I've had it installed on 3 separate computers since I've had it. I don't think it has anything to do with some sort of protection thing they've got going with their game. Same thing for the Arr'ed expansions as well, I've never encountered a time where they wouldn't install on another computer.

Err, what? Did you enter the CDkey in correctly?

I have my one copy of the base game and all stuff/expansion packs installed on 3 computers/laptops here.  All legally purchased.  We were never given a hard time when entering the codes.  Not sure why you have a problem!

Got it running now.  Uninstalled from D: and let it install in the default location.  Now it's happy :)
