Hi Bryan, Right. However, if a person reinstalls Windows using the exact same registration information, has the exact same admin account, etc the GMA user code shouldn't change.

Hi Ryan, I think the problem comes if you change your settings in the f1 help menu. You can change them fine when playing but if you want to save them so the game uses the new settings the next time you play, then it tries to write to the sounds.ini file or something like that which newer versions of windows doesn't like.

Re: [Audyssey] Question about purchasing Gma games
Hi, The GMA games were written in visual basic 6 that is not supported by current versions of windows any more. You need the vb6 libraries added to your computer before playing them. I think Shades of Doom has those libraries and should be installed first. I am not sure about LW or TC. I know that Pacman does not have them as I wrote it. GMA games is one person, David, and when he goes on vacation or has real life issues to deal with, he might not be able to get you a new registration key in a timely manner. The same goes for my PCS games that use the GMA engine. Right now David is working on an update for some of his games to install them somewhere other than c:\program files.

Re: [Audyssey] Question about purchasing Gma games
Oh yes, was going to get Pacman Talks as wel. Don't have any concerns over registration of the game though for that one. Yes that is my concern; you have to contact them for a new code and I can see that being a pain. Cheers anyway.

Here is another company I am interested in purchasing their titles in the future. Due to their registration system I thought I would ask for your comments first. Have you had any problems registering a second computer? Have you had problems registering the same computer after a format and Windows reinstall for example? I understand they can give you a key replacement at no charge, but have you all received the replacement key and if so did it work? The games I am interested in are: 1. Shades of Doom.

Re: [Audyssey] Question about purchasing Gma games
Oh cool, cheers! Sorry thought it was based on specific hardware or something and any changes to it requires a new code.

you can use the same code no matter how many times you reformat each computer will require you to get a new code for it though but once you have it it doesn't matter how many reinstalls you do.
