Windows 7 keeps minimizing my game. I bought software for it and now it is telling me that I need to buy a new CD key. My old key isn't working that came with my CD. It minimizes my game every 5 minutes to tell me that I need to validate windows. I have looked for fixes but can't seem to find any. I was told posting here would be a good option.
Anybody willing to help me figure this out?
Previously this post was a joke involving problems uploading a picture but I changed it for reasons that I can't explain for fear of implicating somebody.
There you have it.
Extra that I just thought of: I didn't change any hardware. I needed to re-install windows. I have the ORIGINAL CD and Code... Made sure to double check.

You should contact Microsoft, they will probably ask you to download the mgadiag.exe tool, and carry on from there. You can probably save time by posting the diagnostics on the first post.

I will proceed to try that immediately.
I tip my hat to you and politely bow, accidentally falling forward into a pile of paperwork.
... Darn. That paperwork. Got a nice night ahead of me.
Seriously though. Appreciate that, pal. Like the way you put it, and the fact you even included a handy little link. 5 stars indeed.

The history of open-source Allegiance is paved with the bodies of dead code branches, forum flame wars, and personal vendettas. But a community remains because people still love the game.
Can't help me?
Sure you can. You're giving my inept self a sense of direction, and I'm grateful, as I've avoided it for quite a while due to it not affecting me at all, but now suddenly need to solve it for reasons that I won't even bother you with the details of, as I suppose that really isn't the point.
I promised somebody I was going to post here anyway, after discussing the issue in-game/mumble service and them (actually two people) suggesting it.
I have time today to dive into the suggestions posted here, and I will the moment I get a chance. Thanks again.

IfIf you have a problem activating your Windows, it's a problem between you and Microsoft, not an Allegiance related problem.
Contact Microsoft, this is the wrong place.
