Error activating key. Tages issue
I have tried every suggestion over and over, the problem I think is that there is no more Tages server to communicate with. Every time I try to activate I get this error. @Ctiv is a tages DRM error. For all of those looking to download the Tages download that is no longer available as clicking that link you get the 404 page.Also, when you download the game from amazon, it comes with the Tages download for both 64 and 86. Neither work. I will try and see if Amazon issues a refund
