Because of the key that is generated when you phone up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
homerjnick Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Please search the answer is there. You will have to enter a key into your system, one that is generated from the key you tell on the phonecall, thus your copy of FM09 knows it is activated.

Selleckta Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 It's my understaing that you will be prompted to activate as part of (i.e. during) the installation process, so hold fire until you've put the DVD in and launched it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott McC Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 I'm not sure to be honest. I imagine they'll give you some sort of code to type into the game that only works for your authentication code and then they'll mark your original code down as having used 1 install. I'm sure whoever's manning the phone lines tomorrow will be able to explain it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Key Posted November 13, 2008 Author Share Posted November 13, 2008 thanks guys, and as for searching as i said this pc would probably blow up if i tried, its not even able to have 2 internet windows open at the same time how bad is that [sad] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
