Rastavovich 0 Posted February 16, 2007 A bit more specific could help greatly. Which version did you buy? Did you patch, incase it was not the 505 version? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
searle 0 Posted February 16, 2007 Sorry about that, its as follows ArmA Armed Assault 2007 505 games Version as installed is 1.04.5121 no patch has been applied recieved direct from destribitors yesterday am. Read all install instructions correctly thank you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rastavovich 0 Posted February 16, 2007 In that case I would suggest you contact them, since they are in charge of their cd keys, I believe contact information is either in the manual or in the readme Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StryDa 0 Posted February 17, 2007 Is this on the multiplayer it is giving invalid CD key for some of you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RAFKRIS 0 Posted February 17, 2007 Is this on the multiplayer it is giving invalid CD key for some of you? Hello - newbie poster here! Yup, I got the 505 version yesterday and when I try to go online it is saying invalid cd key. I find it strange that it lets you install but not play online, either the servers are not recognising the keys or possibly it has something to do with the demo having being installed. In any case 505 say you need to return the game to the place you bought it for exchange - great when you bought it online like me - ;-( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StryDa 0 Posted February 17, 2007 might have been a good idea getting rid of the demo first :P if that doesn't fix it post here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RAFKRIS 0 Posted February 17, 2007 might have been a good idea getting rid of the demo first :P if that doesn't fix it post here. Although a newbie poster, I'm not a newbie! lol The demo was uninstalled before installing the full game, I deleted all references to BI in the registry. Still not working!

Frog340 0 Posted February 17, 2007 I have the same problem - everything OK except for multiplayer has the invalid CD key message. Did you guys with this problem all buy them from Amazon? Maybe a dud batch from the manufacturer? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RAFKRIS 0 Posted February 17, 2007 got mines from dvd.co.uk, my m8 has similar problem bought from game. Obviously they have rushed it out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StryDa 0 Posted February 17, 2007 Have you tried reinstalling and using caps lock? or not using caps lock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frog340 0 Posted February 17, 2007 Yes - tried using lower case letters and with upper case. Reinstalled 5 times in all. Thanks for the tip anyway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Huyrel 0 Posted February 17, 2007 Got mine from Amazon. Could someone with the UK version of the game confirm that they're not getting Invalid CD Key messages. I'm wondering if the error is localised to a few UK copies or every UK copy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
