Lost CD key

**Redwards** · February 06, 2009, 12:25 PM

Alright I lost my CD key somehow. So when I reinstalled I had to use 1111-1111-1111-1111 as my CD key. Now I can't play multiplayer and I can't find my CD key. I have looked through the entire manual and I can't find it. What should I do?

did you searched in the Back of the manual?

:hmmm:

if not.. how unfortunate, you'll have to buy a new game if you want a good-unused cd-key

Is it printed literally in the manual or on some separate thing? Can you tell me what page it is in case I missed it?

Mine's in the dvd case right above the dvds.

I lost my manual book due to my little brother being an ass

I used 1111-1111-1111-1111
after having to re-install it and I can play Multiplayer...

I don't see it in either of those places.

On an unrelated note how come my reputation goes to untrustworthy even when I offer ransoms and keep alliances?

Because you cannot key a CD key?? The computer knows.

Seriously, if you have lost the key you will need to purchase a new copy of the game for a new key. Any type of hinting at getting past the key or cracking the game code is strictly prohibited. As is any other advocating of illegal activities.

Ok thanks what help you guys could offer. I am buying Empire soon anyways so it isn't a big deal.

As I have the problem "invalid CD Key" for playing online, I tried to find my CD Key (to check it again), but I couldn't. I remember that I have found it in one of the files in the DVD, but now I cannot. Luckily I had copied to a word file to use it again.

BUT WHY THE FILE WITH THE CDKEY HAS DISAPPEARED?

and what is the manual? Is it a paper in the DVD case? because I don't have such a thing...
