x2 The Threat software question!!!

Post by writegarrett » Wed, 21. Aug 13, 06:46

If anyone can help please respond! - I purchased x2 The Threat down loaded from on line co. called Gamefly. At first was running great then almost evrytime I take a ship through a gate to another sector, a message comes up that says ( in game voice and printed on screen ) , that the original cd the game software is running on is not recognized and my ship will then self destruct - And it does with explosive graffics and such. So then I try to start at last point with same results no matter which other sectors I try to go to. Any suggestions? The game has barely been launched and I am interested enough to find the problem. I never was given a product identification code- does that have to do with it? Anyone have this problem before?

Never came accross that before.
If you register your game "with the game licence key" ,and ask in tech support,they might help.

From what you say, sounds like a dodgy install.
You could try re-installing.

If you are in to downloading games, you can't go far wrong by downloading the X-Superbox from Steam.
This includes all X games from X-BTF , and has the needed updates to run on Windows 7 64 bit

There are plenty of versions of X2 that don't have registration codes, and registration codes have nothing to do with running the game anyway. Try simply re-installing the game in case it's a corrupt installation.

Was not sure about the reg codes.
But CBJ confirmed my suspicion of install problems.
