Serial Number Question
Ron
game and ask for serials. I have a better plan than just asking and
accepting the flack.
Lost mine, have the original disks. Played the game for months, just
attemptemted to put it on a more powerful computer and hit the snag
where I can't find the serial no. Do you suppose that if I sent the
original three disks to the Bioware folks, with the request, they'd
send them back, with a serial? Might be able to find it in the dark
alleys of the internet, but I simply hate to go there and would rather
do it legally and straigntforward.
Any idea of what the producers feel about a dufus like me losing my
key? And, no, I don't have my original receipt or the box it came in.
Perhaps a couple might remember me if you try real hard, from asking
questions in this forum many months ago, so I've been around a bit,
happily playing the game with a lost serial number. If you remember
me and want to take mercy, I can be found at the following email
address, minus the wierd stuff: ron@l*and$rent%erprises~._com

If you still have NWN installed on the old PC, look in nwncdkey.ini in your
Neverwinter Nights install directory.

whole damned week to find it. This is what happens when they use cheap paper
slips instead of jewel cases!

Meh, I've lost jewel cases with codes too, temporarily anyway. Manuals, I'd
be lucky to find 50% of them for all my games. I keep nwn usually all
together in its original box (yay small boxes) so I've not lost it yet after
a move. The sou expansion made me actually bother to write it down this time
though. Cheap bastards at infogrames er atari.

Did you ever register online at bioware's site? They store your cd key for
you and you can retrieve it that way.

Not unless you checked the box allowing you to view the key when you
registered it. I tried this, found my NWN CD key is not marked as
viewable, there's no option for me to change that and Bioware
employees can't change the viewable flag either. So I have to find my
manual then delete/re-register at Bioware and this time mark the key
viewable. :sigh:

Got lucky. When I first installed the game, I recorded the serial in
a file I created some time back, just containing serials of my various
apps. Forgot I did it, but stumbled on it when doing something else.
All is well again.
Thanks for the suggestions.

(I can only see the post I'm responding to, so I don't know if this has been
said before)
I just logged into my account on nwn.bioware.com (after ages of not logging
in :), and saw you can retrieve your key from there, if you have written it
when creating the account. That might be an idea for the future.
Personally, I wrote the CD-key somewhere else as soon as I got the game,
just in case.
