Reply to First virus in years... in Personal Computing Sins Forums

Thanks for the replies guys, really appreciate it. By the way with regards to Malwarebytes, will it both detect and remove any spyware found, or will it detect it, then ask you to pay for the 'full' version before it will remove it? In your collective opinion, is it worthwhile purchasing anti virus/spyware/malware software (and if so which ones), or do the 'free' versions do a decent enough job? I use my computer mainly for entertainment (games, movies, music etc) and checking email. I don't

Hey Raging, hope the house move is going well, and you'll be able to find some more time to dedicate to this commendable endeavour! I've also had a quick look at EadTaes' thread as it looks like you both (as well as MindsEye) are working towards the same goal. Well, to all of you working on balancing the game (hopefully!) and to anyone else who's interested, here's a big thank you, you've definitely y got one more person voicing their support [e digicons]:)[/e] hop

Reply to [MOD] 7 DEADLY SINS : by DANMAN GAMES (DANMAN3712) ver 2.5 FINAL AVAILABLE to the PUBLIC! in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Thanks for the reply m8, followed what u said and I can now select the Atlantians again :) Also, I was wondering if your options screen lags when the mod is enabled? It seems to happen when I move in or out of the options screen on my machine. Do you know if sins has problems with nvidia cards/drivers? Sins occasionally crashes to my desktop without a minidump whether I’m running a mod or not. Anyways thanks again for your help :)

Hey there DANMAN great work on the mod, and for getting a 1.04 compatible version out so quickly! I gave your mod a go (using the version prior to the 1.1 update) and had great fun with it; especially trying out the new Atlantian faction :D I’ve just downloaded and installed v1.1 of your mod to give it a go, and noticed something seems to be missing… it appears that it’s no longer possible to play as the Atlantians! I restarted sins, after having re installed the mod to see if I’ve ma

Unable to play in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Hi there, I am again having problems trying to play this game and was wondering if anyone could help me. I recently upgraded my computer, and as a result had to re-install Galciv2. I can play the original non-updated game, however as soon as I update the game I get the following message when i try to launch the game: 'The product appears to be validated but the serial number or the machine SID don't match.' What is the machine SID and can anyone offer a solution? Many thanks.

Reply to Error activating product in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

ok the whole serial number thing has me a bit confused....as I used the number on the back of my manual and it worked when I first installed the game. I own a UK copy, bought it in HMV. activation was no problem teh first time round, so not sure whats happened this time round. Could it be because I have installed it on a new machine? Although I don't know why that would cause a problem as I am using the same account details. If I uninstall and re install do u think that might help? ag

Registration expired??? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Hi there, I was wondering if anyone could help me out as I have been having some serious problems actually trying to register this game! I bought a retail version of this game and so had to create a stardock account and download startdock central. I've done all of that, but now when I try and register Gal CIv2 via stardock Central I get a message saying my account information has expired! So I thought ok no problem, I'll just click the option to renew
