I don't understand. Who (or what) switched to gamefly. Who are "They"? What does that mean? Also, they uploaded the games you had on direct2drive? Do you mean downloaded? I'm confused as to what you mean by this.

Once a game installs, there are .dll (Dynamic Link Library) files (for one) that tell the program where everything is located. Simply dragging and dropping these files to a different location will not fix things. It'll usually make the game crash or fail to load completely.

If that cant be fixed what files could i dump off my external HD to make my working shiv = shiv um?
Again, Im confused here. I thought you said the game crashed when you select campaigns.
