Have

I installed the game again, ran the deactivation successfully in XP and then used the deactivation code to activate in the Win7.

I installed the new OS to a different partition and I still have the old XP up and running. Would that help the situation? Could I install the game to XP and use the deactivation process successfully and then install it to Win7? I wonder if Black Shark will be on the list of threatened species in 5-10 years time when all the activations have run out for most people.. Just think that for example Falcon 4.0 is still alive and kicking and it is over 10 years when it was released.

Hi I installed new Windows 7 to my computer yesterday and while doing that I was deleting the old XP installations of various games, which needed to be reinstalled to work. Of course I didn't remember the activation / deactivation thing with Black Shark and deleted the game. Is there any way I could still deactivate my old installation and not loose one of these rare activations just because this? :helpsmilie: I tried viewing the serial number parameters at http://proactive.star-force.com/2.0/activate.php but it didn't help.
