Kage1822 Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 ok, i had to reformat my hard drive, and just got around to reinstalling NWN2, or attempted to... I pulled out the manual, and input the cd key that came with the game. It said invalid CD key... I thought maybe i input it wrong, so I cleared everything, reinput it, compared it to the key in my manual, 5 times and it still says invalid CD key... WTF is going on?!
H Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Check if you haven't mistaken 0 for O. Happens to me all the time.
Humodour Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 But I thought game CD-keys used the DEC alphabet to avoid confusion of G, I, O, and Q with C, 1, 0, and O, for example?
H Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 They do. Thing is, most people don't know this and still try to enter wrong symbols.

Laozi Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 (edited) sure it wasn't Circumvent City?? Dirty Pirates....

What they don't understand is, I mean a jellyfish with long, blond hair.

Tigranes Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 I emailed atari, got a new CD key, and even that is saying invalid CD key Sounds like it's time to email Atari again. Another possibility you may now consider is that the installation program on the CD itself is a little funky, corrupted, buggered, whatever - in which case you would want to look at getting it physically replaced.

Deadly_Nightshade Posted May 15, 2008 Posted May 15, 2008 Wait - how are you going to switch your copy of NWNII for a copy of Mass Effect? I want in in this deal, I mean, I can get the former for half the price of the latter. "Geez.
