WTF?

[arbiter901]

Well I decided to reinstall Halo 2 Vista today, and it installed, and passed the activation screen just fine, but when I signed into Live it said that I exceeded that max allowed usage for my CD key. WTF?

1. Yes I bought the game

2. I did reinstal and activated a quite number of times and I understand that

3. Does MS still support a CD key replacement?

Any help will be appreciated

This is yet another issue with GFWL...how many times have you reinstalled?

Microsoft claims that you have "unlimited" activations on it, but after around 12, it stops working. You need to call Microsoft and sit with them on the phone for a few hours before they give you a new key.

Well after all these weeks, I decided to call Microsoft. (yeah i'm lazy)

I was supprised that it only took about 20-25 minutes for me to get my new Product key.:downs:

Cool Story bro.
There's no need to be a bitch. He was just giving an update on what happened, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Still, its pretty messed that you have to go to the lengths of actually ringing up MS and getting a new key.
