Think the EA Link server were all over the shop last night, my mate couldnt log into them either but as long as EA Link was running in the sys tray (connected or not) the game still worked.

Hippy’s EA fix is posted here at EA’s support site:

http://support.ea.com

Search under 2142 with ‘cd key’ as your search reference (the url was too long to display properly)

There’s also a BAT and REG file it says to use first before manualy (if req’d) editing the registery.

I’m a bit simple when it comes to registery stuff and quite scared to edit it, for fear of fecking up my PC. Are those two files likely to be an automated thing to correct the registery entry??

yes they are – just back up your registry before doing anything

It says they’re for the english-US version, should I still use them or do it manualy?

Oh and if the registery does mess up, how do you restore it using the back up? (sorry for all the questions 🙁 )

Thanks Hippy – had to do the manual regedit in the end as the ‘fix’ file from the ea site was missing its file extension 🙄

Now to sort out TS 😀
