Cd Key Error (Not talking about pirating/illegal activity.)

Recommended Posts

I won't go into detail because I'm sure most of you have guessed and I'm not much of a liar but anyways. I paid my price, rebought arma 2 AFTER reinstalling windows and I'm pretty sure I did a clean wipe to top it off, I didn't just do an upgrade.

Anyways, when I play with my new steam account with my new Arma on what I think is a clean new installation of windows, I still get a registration failed: Invalid CD Key message as any server boots up. However, I am still perfectly able to play fine on these severs. Is this something I should be concerned about or is there another explanation because to be honest I'm quite worried that I may be out 60 dollars trying to fix this problem. (Considering the first time cost me 30 and like an idiot I rebought the entire thing again for 30.)

Everything works fine but that error message haunts me and I have this terrible feeling that somehow my key is...In the wrong hands. I'm not a bad guy, I made a mistake so hopefully this won't lead to alot of flame or moderators simply locking my thread, I'm simply concerned because I really do love DayZ alot and want to just play the game without any problems. So, is this something I should be worried about?

Any feedback is welcome, and thanks in advance.

If you're able to play the game, don't sweat it; if your key's in someone else's hands, damage is already done. Just pray they wait until the SA to get you banned.

Also, your pseudonym isn't very nice. I like books. >.>

Yeah that's pretty much what I was thinking; my thing is though is that I'm new, I've been waiting to play DayZ for what feels like years and am finally able to only 4 days ago since I finally built a computer; waiting for the SA is just too painful. :)

I guess there's not much that can be done either way, I was just looking to see if this is a problem that some people have (It's not really a problem yet since the game runs fine.) That isn't related to theft of any sort to alleviate my mind.

And I love books too! I've just had this ID for too long to change it haha.
