NFS: PU Can't play internet games

Hi, It would seem that my login and password dont work on the EA racing page. I can edit my account with no problem, but when it comes time to log in (with the latest patch) in NFS: PU, it comes back with a LOGIN OR PASSWORD incorrect.. My guess is that my firewall is in the way. Which port should I open up? Unless it takes a while for EA to process my login (I've registered yesterday) Thanks again, Mike

Same problem my place...... :( SZ "Michael" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I had the same problem a while back, and the answer came from this newsgroup: although you already have your login and password, you still have to activate your online racing account by going to the 'add game page'. Just follow the link below (you may have to copy/paste the whole URL in your address bar): http://login.earacing.com/Account.phtml?do=show&func=cgi_eacustomer_add_game \ Good luck, Ice D

Thanks, This wasn't hard, just very counterintuitive :-) It seemed to have worked! Thank you Mike On Wed, 05 Sep 2001 18:10:48 GMT, "Ice D" <[email hidden]> wrote:
