bilbosmeggins Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Obviously my first priority is to load up DCS World, and all of it's inhabitants. Hell, that's the sole reason for the pc change :). Right, question time...... What is the best way to get my new DCS up and running? Am I going to run into security issues with my activation codes on 2 pc's, or do I need to delete off the old one. Also, is there an easy way to transfer my DCS files to the new machine as it's a hell of a downloading session otherwise? Thanks in advance :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawk_5 Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Recently did this myself and my advise is to keep it simple. Just clean install on the new PC from a new download. Trying to take shortcuts can usually end with you chasing problems that defeats the whole point of the quick copy across to save time. You need to install so it goes into the registry anyway.

bilbosmeggins Posted June 2, 2013 Author Share Posted June 2, 2013 Oh bugger. With my internet connection it's just as well that I've got two weeks off work then ;) Thanks for the advice, much appreciated. And is DCS likely to be picky about my authentication codes or do I need to erase off my gaming laptop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
