Lost old cd's so purchased it off of Steam Install seemed fine. Went to create On-line profile and it would not accept SgtWacky. Same profile I've been using for all my games. Also..... likely related..... it will not allow me to connect on-line. Game indicates it is version 17.1263. If memory recalls....this may be an issue. Any help would be appreciated....thanks Awards
