Bad Serial Number given in setup?

08-18-2010, 12:58 PM

I am getting an error message when I try to load up ArmA 2. I bough ArmA 2 and Operation Arrowhead as part of the combined operations package. Now when I first went to boot ArmA 2 or the Operation Arrowhead I got an error window saying "Bad Serial Number given in setup" So I restarted steam and am able to get into Operation arrow head now fine. But ArmA 2 still gives me the error. I was never asked for my Serial code for eather game. Anyone else have this issue or know how to fix it?

Much love,
Reinforce

Plenty of people have been here with the same problem.. I don't remember how they fixed it, but it may be worth scanning a few pages back on these forums. If you don't find anything, hopefully Dwarden will be along soon with a solution.

Good luck
