I also had trouble with D2D activation using the U-Boat Missions upgrade for my version 1.0 boxed version of SH4. Modding gets you into all kinds of trouble with the original game files and I regularly had to reinstall a fresh copy when things got screwy. I also kept a saved copy of the upgrade download when needed, but like you, the activation would fail. My solution was to simply call tech support at D2D, and a "real" person would take the call.....work his magic on his end.....and the next time I tried the activation it went through. I did this several times without a hitch.

When I learned D2D passed off their work to Gamefly I decided not to open any more can of worms. I looked for a CD version of the Gold Edition and found it on iNetvideo for under $9.00. Received it within 3 days of purchase. I see the price has dropped since I purchased, down to under $8.00 now!

Still higher than buying SH5 for only $6.49 (tells you which game is more desired).

Do you have a link to the website where you found that driver? I'm having issues myself after I installed the 1.5 UBoat Addon. Out of the box which was version 1.2 ran fine. Now I'm getting activation issues and it won't recognize the CD key. Ack.....lotsa fun

Fixed it. I couldn't get the updated drivers to work because of a error message saying the connection to activate the game was being forced to shut down. I forget the exact wording but it had something to do with too many attempts being made to activate that game and I would need to call tech support to activate it. Instead I bought and downloaded a new copy of SH4 Gold Edition and everything works including all the mods I have installed. Works great now.
