Gloom Demon Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Hello! I have bought a new computer and put the SSD from the old one in it. I have expected, that I will have to use an activation to be able to use DCSW on it. When DCSW asks for an activation I press Retry and send over the activation number (DCSW remembers it and I do not have to enter it manually) here is what I get: I can't start DCSW, though, thankfully, the number of activations I have does not seem to decrease. Please help me get back into the game :-) AMD Ryzen 3600, Biostar Racing B850GT3, AMD Rx 580 8Gb, 16384 DDR4 2900, Hitachi 7K3000 2Tb, Samsung SM961 256Gb SSD, Thrustmaster T.Flight HOTAS X, Samsung S24F350 24' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudel_chw Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 I have bought a new computer and put the SSD from the old one in it. I have expected, that I will have to use an activation to be able to use DCSW on it. ... I can't start DCSW, though, thankfully, the number of activations I have does not seem to decrease. Please help me get back into the game :-) The easiest solution would be to put back the SSD on your old PC, then deactivate each module, campaign & terrain. Now put it on the new PC and the activation should work ok.
