Hi all

Need assistance..... when I try to open the DF2 games I get the following message:

'You must first run the game as an administrator in order to activate the product'

Anyone else get this message? or know how to get around this problem??

Thanks

C1

No I havent but it sounds like it can't create the standard text file/system configs for the game. Right click on the desktop icon and run as administrator. Or copy the game from the programs files (x86) folder to another part of your c drive. C:\Novalogic\DFX2.

Run it outside of the Programs Files folder as it is write protected unless you are an administrator of your pc.

Hope it works for you.

Did you just reinstall the game?

I tried to re-install.... same problem..
I did a right mouse click on it and ran as administrator and that seemed to work
Thanks all
