Hello everyone, it's been quite a while since i have been seen around here and its nice to see all of you guys are still here hard at work with my favorite game ever. I just recently reinstalled my OS and i cant seem to get my vanilla install going, it says it cant connect to a registration. I hit connect but to no avail, and i already have a broken install sitting around on my PC along with a working internet.
This isn't the first time I've installed Il2 fresh copy so idk why it wants me to register all of the sudden.

Thanks in advance. :-\

I have it installed but it asks me to connect to something that it says is powered by active mark. I am connected to the internet but it says it can't connect me for some reason.

you install from DVD or Steam version
maybe you need the Direct to drive patch

AktiveMark?

Please: http://www.ehow.com/how_7723476_disable-activemark-regedit.html


Or read this:


Instructions:

1.) Open the Start menu and type "regedit" without quotes. Press "Enter."

2.) Click "Yes" or supply the administrator password if prompted for permissions by Windows.

3.) Expand the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE," then "SOFTWARE," then "Microsoft," "Windows," and "CurrentVersion" directories. Click "Run."

4.) Right-click the entry labeled "ActiveMARK" on the right panel of the window. It will be of type "REG_SZ." Click "Delete," then click "Yes" to confirm

     the action. The startup entry for ActiveMARK has now been removed.

Whoah... active Mark sucks
thanks for the link Bombkiller,a bit of an eye opener

Can't beat owing the good 'ole DVD,especially at today's prices for a 10 year old game   ;)

The ActiveMARK service runs as a background task on

your computer all the time, even when you are not using it. Disabling the ActiveMARK application from starting with your system will prevent you from playing ActiveMARK protected games.
