Hi all,

I've decided to get back into SH4 after some time away. Unfortunately, I can't seem to install.

When I install the game, I get the UbiSoft product activation window. Trying my serial number (which always worked in the distant past) gets me the following message:

"Activation FAILED: server error - wrong/invalid serial number"

I own my copy through Direct2Drive, which has been absorbed by another service called Gamefly. (Surely someone in marketing should have realized that Flies are not viewed positively? I digress.) Supposedly, old D2D purchases should still be functional. Is that not the case?

Thanks for any advice!
