First of all, my BF2 and BF2:SF CDKeys are(were) both genuine. But my old HDD crashes every now and then so I made a fresh install in a new HD and all... I can't find my BF2 CD's anymore so I used a backup.
Since I couldn't retrieve my plain old CDKey, I tried to copy the encrypted one from the registry and then pasted it back in the new Windows installation, but it just doesn't work. It says "Invalid CD-Key" or whatever when I try to join an online game.
I don't know if the encryption scheme is different depending on whatever factors, or if the backup is a DVD version and my old CDKey was from a CD, but anyways it's not working.
Any ideas?
Thanks
