Crysis 2 will not start! I'm asked to activate each time!

Post » Tue Dec 13, 2011 10:53 am

Hi, I am having a problem to get Crysis 2 running on my second computer. My new computer that is.
Everytime I try to play the game I get an activation screen. I press activate after inserting the cd key and I get a message saying that the activation is successfull.
Then the game never boots, so i try to start it again and I get the activation message again. I took a look in the crysis bin folder and theres an activation app there, I ran it and it said 4 of 5 activations free to use, shouldnt that have said 3 of 5? ? ?
It's really annoying me here, I want to play the game and it will not allow me to.

Edit:
Okey, now I de-authorised on my first computer too... So now I can't play it on that one either, same thing happens on that one. What is wrong with this!? I've googled this a lot and it seems like theres many people suffering with this problem, but related to steam. I do not have this game for steam, I bought it on dvd. I would really appreciate all help.

I tried to send this to Crytek to get an answer, but all I get is "Form token does not match expected value"

Is there anybody out here who can help me!? :(

Edit: I found out a sollution for my Laptop atleast, I right clicked on the shortcut and selected run with NVIDIA graphicscard and it booted up perfectly, still wont run on my desktop tho, since I deauthorized it I think :S

Ok.... Tell us your PC specs. Also, uninstall all Crysis 2 games, from both of your computers, then activate it on one... And don't forget to backup your save games. It should work! If it doesn't, report it in this thread. Btw. If nothing works, contact EA support...

I found out a sollution for my Laptop atleast, I right clicked on the shortcut and selected run with NVIDIA graphicscard and it booted up perfectly, it's my new laptop I tried to run it on today, so now I'm happy. Tho it doesnt run on my old desktop anymore. Will try to reinstall on it later, but I think it has something to do with me de authorising it.
