Thought i might get back into a bit of F1 2001 after seeing all the new stuff with the GTMOD, only to be stopped right in my tracks at the start of the installation. I cant find the original cd case which has the serial number on it... wtf happens now? Seems it would make more sence to have it on the manual or something Luke -- AP|-|EX

Call EA and ask for your old reg. code - you did register it, didn't you?

What exactly do people do with their jewel cases? Do you keep your CD's in a neat stack in the corner of a room? I have a CD drive and a burner...that is exactly 2 spots to store CD's without a case. The rest of my collection is kept in jewel cases in a storage rack. My manuals are kept in a "banker box". Now, I have no reason to suspect otherwise, as I don't know you, but I tend to think that many people who claim to have lost their CD cases, manuals, etc. with the serial number on it, never have owned the actual product. Perhaps if you try to contact EA and fax, mail or email a photocopy of the game disk, they would help you. Good Luck. Lawman

Well, it depends on how organized you are. I'm not. I've misplaced CDs before, so if a game *required* the CD, I couldn't play it for a while. Manuals could be on any shelf in my computer room, or in on of several stacks of books and paperwork. My F1-2001 manual isn't in the box(I just checked). I *did* find the CD, so I'd be ok there. If it(the serial#) had only been in the manual, I'd currently be SOL... Eldred -- Dale Earnhardt, Sr. R.I.P. 1951-2001 Homepage - http://www.umich.edu/~epickett GPLRank - under construction...

Ok really, if i pirated the game of a friend, i could just ask him for the serial, and if i downloaded the ISO it would have the serial number in the .NFO file. If it was a rip, you wouldnt require to install the game, just a no-cd crack which is useless for me because i cant even get to select the installation directory. I ended up finding my case anyway, turns out it was the case the cd was in, i just didnt look at the back :). 2hrs of time wasting for nothing :) Luke "Lawman_02766" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > "Luke Phillips" <(NOSPM)[email hidden]> wrote in messagenews:<1_er8.21712$[email hidden]>... > > mine has nothing.. annoying because you cant even get a no-cd patchbecause

It isn't anywhere in my manual, only in the back on the CD case, printed on the inside sleeve. -- Chris H.
