Weird stuff at reinstall

Post by Bmonkey »

decided to re install after i ran into problems last night,

(in the end i was poking in the wrong direction, seems the intercontinental line was just buggered.)

So after uninstalling and cleaning register i turned my comp off to leave the installing for today.
While installing i started normally with the basic game then shadows of undrentide.

This is where the game gave me a big brother is watching you scare...

While installing sou the game asked me for the next disk hotu, HOW DOES SOU KNOW I OWN HOTU ?

after this i just installed hotu anyway and that installed a few files the sou install didnt.

I was wondering if anyone has seen this before and where it came from? (guess maybe it had some residual info in register even after the clean but still...)

--ps this isnt a plat edition , all original disks from seperately bought expansions

If you look at the files when your doing the installs of the expansion packs. You will see xp1.key for SoU and xp2.key for HotU. There are a few other files too, but those are the "giveaways".
