mj3437 Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 I have upgraded my MB to a MSI z170a and my CPU to an i7 6700k and am having trouble activating. I have run a couple repairs and activations (all stated as successful) but still get an err message saying it is invalid because of hardware changes. I can exit that message after several tries and it takes me to the game. The screen shows the main menu with a strange symbol on the right. If I choose an instant action and hit fly I'm taken to the f10 map(still with the strange symbol). I will get the err report and a screen shot of the main menu this evening and post here if needed. Any ideas of what I need to do to get this straight?

Rangi Posted January 22, 2017 Posted January 22, 2017 What programs have you got running in the background? If you installed all the msi bloatware, I would guess it is one of those. What happens when you click on it? I can't see the photos very well as I am on a phone so can't help any more than that. PC: 6600K @ 4.5 GHz, 12GB RAM, GTX 970, 32" 2K monitor.
