How do I reinstall online games bought to new PC?

Most of the time the game company will allow you to re-download/install the game for free.  Accessing it usually requires a password or key code that was issued to you when you first purchased the software.  To reinstall, you'll most likely need to find that key code, or the confirmation email that was sent to you when you purchased.  Transferring games from an old computer to a new one would be a hassle since there's hidden registry files and what not that necessary to run...  Good luck!

Depending on the PC Game they have copy protection. Sometimes you can burn them, but they wont work. There are a few programs you can try. Alcohol 120% is one. Ill talk to you about it later on messanger.

It depends on the game. Some games just need to be downloaded. Yahoo! Games has some of both types.

Have you considered looking on the install CD for the game? They usually keep important files on the install CD. You have the original install CD, right? I mean, you didn't try to just download the game for free and crack it, right?

I had that same problem and this work but, you must have the game installed to retrieve it.\n\na. Select Run from the Start Menu \nb. Type - regedit and click OK \nc. For The Sims go to: Hkey Local Machine/Software/Electronic Arts/Maxis/The Sims/ergc \nd. For Living Large go to: Hkey Local Machine/Software/Electronic Arts/Maxis/The Sims Livin' Large/ergc \ne. For House Party go to: Hkey Local Machine/Software/Electronic Arts/Maxis/The Sims House Party/ergc \nf. On the right side you will see a file called default. Double click that and there's your registration key! \nIf all else fails, you'll have to contact Electronic Arts about a serial replacement.

There's just way to much to be said on this subject to post here...Each game has different copy protections. (you can legally make a copy of your games for backup)\nGo to this site, and look to the left at the links...then follow the instructions...In general, you need Special Copying Software like Alcohol 120% to copy games...\nhttp://www.gameburnworld.com/gameburnworld.htm

In general you can't any longer.  It used to be that Shockwave Games let you install a game an infinite number of times after it was purchased once, so purchasers freely shared their codes around because, hey, no loss.\n\nNow they've coded their systems that force 5 installs at a maximum.  Once the same code key has "phoned home" to Shockwave (and the game won't play until it's been reg'd) five times, then it won't allow any more instances of the same code key being used.  Because of this, purchasers are hanging onto their code keys for times when they get new PCs or their HDs blow or whatever.\n\nYour best bet would be to get a code key from a game that someone doesn't like any more - if they don't think they'll ever reinstall, they may give up their rights to their spare keys.\n\nOr, you could just suck it up.  I bought Shockwave Gameblast (now called "Unlimited") for $26.95 per year and I get to play hundreds of games there.  Well worth it, IMHO.

I tried to reinstall a game I downloaded, and I couldn't. Maybe it's like that.

Most of the time there is no easy way to do this.  A good example of this would be Microsoft Office.  When it installs, it puts hundreds of files on your system, all over the place.  Then it rights a few thousand registry entries.  Again, all over the place.  But if this is a simple program you could do a manual move.  I have done a few that you just have to copy the C:&#92;program files&#92;???? folder to the new computer.  This works about 5% of the time though.  Usually a reinstall is required.  If you are the licensed owner of the software then you could contact the manufacture and purchase a CD from them for a couple of bucks.  Sometimes if you search the web you can find a copy as well.   Good luck

Digitalfan.com (I guess) or buy CDs from PC game shops

You can't. The software is only valid with the serial number. Otherwise, you must purchase a new copy. If I were you, however, I would call Microsoft customer service just in case.

I have, I own the game on CD, once you load it you can even play on line via yahoo games, but to my knowledge you need the CD.
