how to get Battlefield 3 running again?

[alohapc]

I am not a gamer.
I purchased B3 a year ago from Newegg.com.
Maybe played it 3 times, total 1 hour.
Now it is giving an error.
Installed too many times.
Yes, but on my same machine. I only have 1 game machine here.
I am a hardware guy. Luv yer forum msgs and try what I read here.
So, sometimes I install Windows 3 times in a single day on diff harddrives tho.
I guess B3 doesn't like this.
But I didn't know this.
I only buy 1 game in about 5 years time.
If anyone can help, give a hack code or sumthing.
Thanks
I have the entire package intact. My own serial number etc.

I would give Origin support a call @ 866-543-5435. They were able to get my hacked account back to me within just a few minutes.

You bought it but only played 1 hour ?

I thought my 150 hours was low.

Now it is giving an error.

That's very helpful information for troubleshooting

I will give that number a try then. Thanks.


Yup, only played an hour total cuz it wouldn't install after the 5th time.
I wiped the drives and reinstalled Windows each time.

That's bullshit! As long as you have a valid Key code than you should be able to install/uninstall it as many times as you wish!

You can. User error was involved.
