Hi,
I'm getting the above message (in the title) when I try to run my copy of GalCiv2.
The situation was that on my old hard-drive I had installated the Totalgamingnetwork and a version of Stardock Central over a year ago.
Since then, that hard-drive is no longer my central hard-drive, the CPU/mobo are not the same, and that SDC isn't the main one I use. I just did a fresh install of Stardock Central on my new boot drive. It does not appear to see the old hard-drive where I have a full directory of Totalgaming network games, directory structure completely unmodified.
So I'm guessing the problem is the machine serial ID number needs to be updated. Is that possible, or must I go through the process of re-downloading all my games again? If I have to do that, if I choose archive option in SDC this time, will it avoid the re-downloading part, if I modify my computer further in the future?
