I'm wondering if anyone knows what needs to be backed up (registry key,etc?) in order to accomplish the following. (I realize this isn't an issue with Nascar3 only, but with that new cd key thingy with the truck addon pack introduces this.) I recently reinstalled Windows, and to save me tons of time, I just zip up and backup my Nascar3 folder structure (to save time reinstalling setups, mods, patches, etc.) But with N3/Truck pack, when I do this, I get an error saying "invalid installation". Does anyone know what I need to backup so that I don't get this error? (right now to combat this problem, I reinstall N3, then the truck pack, then delete that folder and unzip my backed up folder.) * Sent from RemarQ http://www.remarq.com The Internet's Discussion Network * The fastest and easiest way to search and participate in Usenet - Free!
