    Also, I clean my iPhone with a blue microfiber cloth, and a bottle of iKlear around 8 times per day.... :duck:

  2. I'm surprised you were actually able to download a game from DR. I remember a while ago I tried downloading the Megapack for TDU1. I paid the $15 or whatever it was, and I never got a download link in my email. I filed a complaint but it never was resolved, so I ended up buying it from Metaboli.

     

    It'll download, but slowly. Did you file your complaint with the BBB, too? I backed up my Megapack, along with the TDU Installer to an SD Card, so I just run the installer from the SD Card, to installl it to my PC. If DR won't do anything, I'll file one on Atari. If all else fails, I heard that since they refuse to provide support, and activate a legal license I bought, I'd technically be able to (I believe he said this) file a Class-Action lawsuit.

  3. Well, I'm fed up with the pathetic BS that Atari and Digital River want to provide me. I install the game, and I receive a message saying I activated the key too many times [i bought the download version]. I was like "No big deal, this has happened before. I'll call, and either get a new key, reset this one, or a manual code". I call, and this is what I get: "Mr. Hummel, I'm afraid that we will be unable to activate the game, and fix your error, as our activation server is currently offline" [i called around 11PM EST]. I said "OK.", and hung up. In the morning, I emailed "[email protected]", as I found in the activation window, and on a thread here, and I clearly put in the subject line my order number, and that I needed manual activation. I explain that I needed to reinstall, and provide the manual activation code, and my billing info. I receive a reply saying: We are unable to help you. Visit http://www.atari.com/us/support for more info. Now, click that link. I get a message saying that page doesn't exist. Do you? So, I email them and say "Your link is dead. Please fix it.", They tell me they can only help with download issues, when the activation window clearly told me to contact Digital River, and their logo is branded in the activator. Then then tell me to contact MICROSOFT. What the fudge! How in the world do they get the idea to have me contact MICROSOFT!?!? Microsoft is nowhere related to TDU! Atari made the game, Digital River sold it to me, and Digital River activates it!!!!!! WTF! :mad:

     

    They then said I should redownload my game. I replied saying "I have downloaded it. In fact, I can download it just fine. If you'd look at the subject line, I'm having an ACTIVATION issue. Your server said I activated the game too many times. All you should need to do, is either give me a new key, reset the current one, or give me an unlock code." They tell me AGAIN to go to that http://www.atari.com/us/support which is a link for a page that DOES NOT EXIST, for Tech Support. I reply "How many times do I need to tell you that your link is invalid???" :mad:

     

    I then get some c***amamie BS saying "We apologize for the inconvenience. Unfortunately, due to the age of order number 1482*****, it is outside our influence as a third party processing service to pursue support on your behalf.

     

    We advise you to contact the vendor directly or place a new order."

     

    They then give me that bad link AGAIN, and tell me to submit a support ticket to Atari.

     

    Atari's response? Contact Digital River. :mad::mad:

     

    I'm fed up with the BS. My response? File a complaint with the BBB of Minnesota and North Dakota (Digital River's HQ is in Minnesota) against Digital River. If it still isn't resolved, I'll have to file another one against Atari, Inc. With the BBB of Metropolitan New York. (Where Atari's HQ is)

     

    I want DR to give me a new key, and a DVD copy, as the DVD copy doesn't have this BS activation limit. They shouldn't have a problem sending me a DVD copy. I paid my $$$ for the game.

  4. I've about had it.

     

    Let me make this short and sweet. I had Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, but then I started getting constant BSOD's because my hard drive is in the beginning stages of hard drive failure. So, I wiped, and reinstalled Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit, as it won't crash and burn, unlike Windows 7. I know using your PC with a dying hard drive is flat out stupid, but I have all my data backed up. Besides, it's a fresh install, and Windows, updates, and TDU are the only thing on this box. ANYWAYS...... :bsod:

     

    I login to Digital River, and re-download TDU, and the Megapack. Then I go to ftp.atari.com, and download the 1.66A patch from their FTP server. I installed TDU, and opened it. It brought up activation. It activated fine. It launches, and I get the black screen. It sits there for 10 seconds, and fools me into thinking that it'll launch, instead I get "Test Drive Unlimited has stopped working". So, I install the patch. It still crashes. Megapack? Still crashes. I uninstall, install any new updates, and update my video card. I reinstall, but I noticed something weird. Even though that I deleted the TDU folder in C:\ProgramData, it didn't ask for the serial key to activate. But, I installed the 1.66A patch before running it, and opened it on a clean install, with the patch. Still crashed. I rebooted, and it still crashed. I even went to the compatibility tab, and put it on XP SP2 compatibility, and checked the boxes to disable themes and desktop composition. Still crashed and burned.

     

    I'm going to post my specs, a dxdiag, the crash report from Windows.

     

    SPECS:

     

    2.67 GHz Intel Core i7 920

     

    6GB (1GB x 6) RAM (Clock speed and vendor unknown)

     

    Samsung Spinpoint F1 SATA 7200 RPM Drive @ 450 GB.

     

    Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit with ALL updates AND SP2 installed.

  5. I know a way we can get our 'Lamborghini's'. I know the purpose of the Test Drive Unlimited series is to have official licensed vehicles, that look exactly as they do in real life, but Eden and Atari can do what Rockstar did with the vehicles in GTA IV. They can give the cars the same performance data as an actual Lamborghini, but make the car look 'similar' to the actual car. Then we can have our 'Lamborghini's' without any licensing issues! For example: In GTA IV, The 'Marbelle' is actually a Lincoln Towncar. The 'Marbelle' looks almost EXACTLY like a Lincoln Towncar. But they change a few visual aspects of the car, give it a different name, but the same performance data as in real life, and there is your 'Lincoln 'Towncar' without ANY licensing issues! I wouldn't mind if Eden did this.

     

    :cactus: :rolleyes:

  6. Well I'm not exactly back, I guess you could say this is my finale for TDU, I figured I'd end it with my favourite car... until TDU2 anyway:) I will be changing the date though, as alot of people can't make it. And your sig is way to big, might wanna fix that before the mods catch ya.
