July 19, 201113 yr Oh dear...that normally only happens with an illegal copy. You sure it was legit? Let's go, let's go overground Take your head out of the mud baby
July 19, 201113 yr Patched to the right version? Tried re-installing? IIRC sometimes the CD-Key isnt recorded in Windows Registry properly, do some googling on it. Other than that take it back to JB and get a replacement. I didn't even know you could get it retail anymore Inq.

July 19, 201113 yr I went through this whole saga. Only fix for me was anew CD Key from EA. Open a ticket on their support site and tell them you've tried all options.
