The first one is the regular COD2 game I bought many years ago. I recently purchased a second copy from Steam so I could play with my son, Joe Jr. online. My personal computer is down for a couple of days. I was wondering if it would be possible to use joecanadian>XI< on the second computer while I fix the first one without screwing up my son's settings. He tried to play after me, but his name would not be accepted anymore, it would be changed to "guest1" or "unknown player". Any ideas why this is happening? Is it a Steam or a Punkbuster issue? Thanks Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

(Right cklick the game -> properties) 2: close steam, go to your steam folder (C:\Program Files\Steam f.e.), rename the file "clientregistry.blob" to "clientregistry.blob.bak" or delete it. Don't bother, it will be recreatedwhen you restart the steam client. Login to his account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
