I just ordered a new "luxury" computer....3.00 GHz Quad Core Processor ,3 SLI latest version 768 mb graphic cards..all that rot...
Naturally I was getting out my SHIII and SHIV disks and boxes in preparation for installing them on the new system...and hoping for no convoy congestion on this system when it arrives.
Then I noticed there are no security keys in the boxes....
...please remind me...doesn't UBI require security keys? If not, then that is surprising since UBI is so piracy paranoid. It has been so long since I installed them I can't actually remember. Or were the codes in the game manuals? If so... well that is gonna require some even deeper digging...
. I know I could have looked in my system registry for the codes but ..stupid me..I thought they were in the game boxes I have been saving and I have already deleted both the sims and cleaned the registry in anticipation of giving this system to my kid.
(a girl.. so she won't be playing any subsims)
(Probably a mute point anyway... since I was reading the Vista thread and the general best opinion for running on Vista is to just go ahead and order a D2D download version which is already 1.4 patched and starforce free...that would take care of SHIII but not IV.)
