THANKS THIS IS GREAT

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?

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!
