Unlicense?

bigcdogg21 · 03-05-2002, 02:49 PM

I want to format my hard-drive and do a complete and fresh install of windows xp. The only thing that worries me is my license for this. I all ready had to email Viatech once to reinstate my licence. If I unlicense it and do my fresh install of windows, will I have to try and get my license reinstated again? I don't want to have to pay again, even though I'm sure I'll be getting version 4 eventually the league I'm running is in 3.2 and we don't want to switch versions during a season.

Thanks for any help.

It should be a very straight forward process...before formatting your harddrive...unlicense the software so you can return the license back to the server....if you reformat without doing this...you will lose that license...after reformatting your hard drive simply reinstall OOTP...input your order number...and relicense...the server will send the license to your computer, thus unlocking the product...Good Luck
