Secondly, you don't have to put up with me for a while! So, finally got to upgrading to Windows 10 and I really do enjoy it and it's nice and all BUT after reinstalling my steam library from a back up I can't play mutliplayer on CoD2. This is because it didn't actually give me my CD key. It's gone! I have tried these: Looking in RegEdit, nothing. Installing Windows 7 on my other HDD and also CoD2 and that was the same, no Key at all. Also verified the games cache, also nothing. It's a right old pain in the ass. For sure. If anyone else has anymore tips then that would be greatly appreciated! It might just be me having to get another key Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Navigate to the following registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Activision\Call of Duty 2 Note: In 64-bit operating systems, this path may begin as: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ Click on the registry value "codkey". This is your Steam-assigned CD Key for Call of Duty 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Sadly I have tried everything and I've decided just to buy a new copy of the game. It's not overly important that I can't play it. I'm sure the server will survive without me for a bit RobMc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Can't keep an idiot out that easily! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
