Lost manual + re-install = A sad Duncan

[Duncanish]

I've been having problems with my Dom2 copy (it was crashing to the desktop before bringing up the menu) so I decided to uninstall and re-install. No problems. Then comes the time when I have to input my CD-key, and I can't find my stinking manual. Is there a way to get my CD-key back? I seached through old Posts and it said there's a plain text file called "key" in the dom2 directory that has it in there, but I can't locate the file. Any help?

You should have saved the old "key" file.
In fact, it's a plain ASCII text file with -guess- the key number, so you could have got it from there. Simply replacing/inserting the old file would work, too.
Looks like you deleted it when re-installing, too bad http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

Better either go searching for the manual or pepare for spending some more bucks for a 2nd Version of DOM2 http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

And if you find the manual, note the key number on the CD. Without the CD, you wouldn't be able to install anyway.
And back up the complete DOM2-folder to CD-R next time ..
