PoP warrior within activation problem!?!

[badtez]

When i run the pop2 exe it asks for the key which i copy from the games for windows live page.,then it says its going to get some other code from the server.. Tages DRM i think it is.
Well it then just pops up an error about being forcibly shutdown by the remote host?
So i go into my firewall settings and make sure the tages thing and the pop2.exe both have full access but still the same?
Ive even tried turning the firewall off.. someone help please!! Was only a couple off £ for the game but i just wanna play it after waiting so long for the download!!

Just got that game myself from GFWL - was £1.25... I too couldn't get the DRM activation to work, so I just cheated and got a cracked .exe... Google search they are out there..

Also, the game runs in a very low res, 1024 x 768, not much good for 1080p displays..

Widescreen gaming has a hack that needs a cracked.exe to work anyhow, means you can up the res to something like 1280 x 720 or something...Gets rid of the black bars down the side..

Seeing as I'm talking about this game, man has it aged..!! Looks ok, but I so remember it looking fantastic when I first played it back in 2005..?? Controls are iffy as well, works better with a gamepad.

I think everyone who bought warrior within and sands of time is having the same issue. I can't find a nocd patch patch for sands of time that'll work on Win7x64 so I guess I'll have to wait for MS, Ubisoft and Tages to decide who is at fault and then fix it. :/. Guess I won't be playing it all.

well i tried a nocd exe but it still just goes to the tages activation crap and error

Good job it was only £1.25 but time wasted that i could have been downloading FO3 GOTYEdition ...
