When I paid for EHM I also paid to get the CD sent to me. I'm old fashoed that way. On the CD came my order ID number, but the CD came with 3 games. EHM, WSM, and OOTPB, does the order ID work for all of them, or just EHM, which I paid for?

I'm curious cause I want to order another one for my brother and his kids are both hockey and baseball fans. My brother and his oldest son are coming to visit in the middle of June for a few days and I want to give it to them then.

Is it also possible to transfer my ID number to my brother? I may just give him mine and buy another for me later. My issue is I don't know how the verification thing would go because he's be verifying from Amman, Jordan and I live here in California. I don't know if my I number is dedicated to here or what.

I'm new at this whole downloading a game thing. I don't know if giving him my number now, or ordering another in my name will screw things up if I give it to my brother.

Thanks for your help.

Well I know that the ID can be registered or ANY 2 computers at a time so you can keep it while he uses the other use on his computer.

You can have the same license on two computers, but the intent isn't to split the license between two people. The license is supposed to be for yourself. If you want to give the game to your brother, buy him a separate license.

Well that is my intent, but I still don't have the answers to my questions.

I'm pretty sure Blight answered your question.

AFAIK, the SN# is for EHM and that's all. Try it and see.

Well if I buy another I don't want it assoiciated with this computer is what I am trying to say. So while it can be used on two computers, I don't want my computer to be one of them if I give it to my brother.

I am wary of trying the ID# on the other games as I don't want to mess up my ID#. I bought EHM, not those other two. I don't wanna get screwed and lose EHM, I'm addicted you see.

If you purchase a license, I don't see how it can be associated with your computer unless you enter it in your computer.

You can't mess up a license. You can just unlicense it if you don't want to use it.

I just have an additional question as the contact email for sigames keeps failing for me:

I recently had to reformat my computer and lost all of my programs. I just re downloaded EHM: 2007 and need to find out what the process is to get my order ID again as I am unable to locate it. Thank you

Go here and fill out their support form. Your licence is from elicence, not from SI.

Thanks man, just filled it out

As someone who bought the game, I must say i am quite dissapointed with how the licencing is handled. I have setup Point of Sale systems that have less stringed licencing. It also doesn't take the POS companies 5 days to reset your licence so you can actually install the game. I expect licencing setups like this when I am working with a $15 000 picce of software, not a $34 game.

Hey Richie.... How could you have the same license on 2 computers? I want the game to be not only on my desktop, but my laptop as well but don't want to create another license#.

Any idea how many licenses they'll issue on 1 order ID#?

Thanks

The license allows 2 computers to have the same ID. For myself, I have it on my machine at home and on my machine at work... same ID#.

Your example would work fine... laptop and desktop. The limit is 2.
