So about a month ago I bought Arma II CO through gamestop's impulse service because I had the gamestop credit and wanted to try DayZ. So about 3 days ago when I went to play DayZ and tried to join a server I got the "Bad Serial Number Given In Setup" Error. I know lots of people have fixed this via running as admin or restarting their computer. This however did not work for myself. So after browsing the forums for awhile I figured it would be best to just reinstall both games. So I uninstall both of them and after the 3 hour wait of redownloading them I then go and try to install the 1.60 and 1.62 patch for Operation arrowhead and get a "Arma II Operation Arrowhead is not installed or installation is corrupt" error. So then I start browsing the forums looking for solutions for this. Couldn't find any that worked. So I then tried to completely uninstall arma II and Operation Arrowhead and completely reinstall both games. After doing this the problem persisted and I have looked for solutions to this problem but have yet to find one to fit my issue and to solve my issue.
Things I have tried:
Run as admin
Restart Computer
Arma II Reg Fixer
Reinstall Multiple Times
Change Install Directory
Get latest beta patch
Get latest arma 2 patches
And none of this has worked so if you might be able to help feel free. And any questions about my setup or need more info just ask. Thank yo.
