MrPompey Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 A quick tip If you have the DVD boxed version disconnect initially from the internet. This will avoid a 4 hour download over he internet. This maybe overkill but avoid the mistake / issue I had Use explorer to look at the DVD contents on your dvd drive. In one of the folders is an installation file, double click to start the install I suggest not to use the steam method. Once the game has installed it will want to log onto the internet to allow you to activate the game. Connect back up to the internet When you log onto the site key in the code off your manual but beware zeroes could be oh's Once done download the patch. Don't run when prompted save it to desktop. Double click from desktop and the patch will install and you'll be off and going hopefully! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
