Liscensing Question

bigmike75th · 04-15-2003, 03:01 PM

Okay well I finally broke down and bought OOTP5 unfortunately due to the screen resolution thing its not going to work on my laptop. So Im going to install on my desktop at home whenever I finally make my way there and then buy a desktop and put it on there, so my question for whoever would know is if its possible to install it on to three computers, I'm not positive on how the whole licesning thing works, it seems liek you would get at least 3 licenses, but i wanted to check here first. Thanks a bunch,

Mike.

you get 2 licenses, not 3.

bigmike75th · 04-15-2003, 03:07 PM

And there is no way around that at all?

not without buying another copy of the game.

now, you CAN unlicense the game from systems you're not using it on, but you can only have it running on 2 systems at 1 given time.

Oh so you can unlicense it from a computer when you dont wish to run it on that computer anymore, well that works out perfect then. Thanks for the help, I'm impressed with the community here its pretty solid.
