GibbsNet 10 Posted October 23, 2010 I've had this problem before. Basically I have ARMA2 (CD) and downloaded ARMA:OA (from the download service Gamers Gate). I keep getting "Wrong CD-KEY" even though it isn't! I can click next and still install the game but when I try to patch or install BAF I get the same error that my CD key is invalid. I'm pretty sure last time that it was just pot luck but I've tried installing 10 times now and still nothing. I can asure you the CD key is right and is valid! Anyone else has a similar problem or experience? I'm running out of options. It's so annoying, I just want to get online and play :) Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[vs-uk]jones 10 Posted October 23, 2010 Hope this helps run the game in-between installation of arma2 /OA /baf. run as admin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GibbsNet 10 Posted October 23, 2010 Thanks Jones. I installed ARMA2, ran the game as admin, went to install OA and the same happened. Is the CD stored somewhere in the Windows registry? Maybe I can install the game then change the CD key somewhere before installing the updates/addons... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GibbsNet 10 Posted October 23, 2010 Well I kept trying (closing when is said Wrong CD Key, then starting the installer) and it eventually worked. Pot luck I guess. Still very confusing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
