Problems installing 23 Apr 2014 04:53 #27159

Ok, so I haven't been on the forum in a while (not since finding out that my pc didn't meet minimal requirements). Well, the pc I was using crashed and died last year, so I got a new lenovo with windows 8. I came back here a few months after getting it and realized that I met minimal requirements. I decided to purchase the simulator the second I could. After getting the email with the download instructions and receipt I went strait to downloading it. I typed in the link I was given and pressed enter. Instead of pulling up a page or anything, it started downloading something instantly. I'm not sure if that's it or not because its so slow that I cut it off from downloading at least twice. Please tell me if this is what I'm supposed to do, or if there is a web page that should come up. Thank you for your time and consideration.

It is normal for it to take a long time to download.

Thanks David...although, I wouldn't mind hearing what a moderator might have to say about it

Use the mirror two, it's MediaFire. Also, it's 700 mb, it should take about 15 - 20 minutes on some internets, longer or shorter on others with that mirror.

Hi,
If you use the main link and/or mirror 1, there will be no webpage shown. It will just download, but it's really slow. I recommend using mirror 2, which leads you to a MediaFire page.

Ok, I'm sorry, but I'm a little confused. I got a link to follow once I bought the game, and then download installation file with administrative privileges. The second I entered the link it started to download something, no other screens. I also think I need an activation key for the download, which I never got. Explain this to me please.

It should have sent you an email with your activation key.

You mean serial number. You get a serial number to be used to acquire an activation key.

If you have never received it in 48 hours:
First of all, check your spam filters. An automated mail with the serial number can be determined as spam quite often.

If you have not found an email with the serial number in your mailbox, please, provide us with following information:

● Your full name, country and city;
● Version of the game, which you've bought;
● Your order ID (if remember);
● Your method of payment;
● Time and date when you've paid;
● E-mail, which you entered when paying.

Please send all this information to our e-mail: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it

Without such information we can't help you.

Obtaining an activation key using the emailed serial number:
1. After installation of the program is finished, run the installed game with administrator privileges (right click on the game's shortcut and choose "Run as administrator in the context menu).

2. Copy the product code from the game startup window.

3. Follow this link - www.activate.citycardriving.com/

4. On the web page you've just opened you should enter: your serial number, the product code you have just copied, and your e-mail.

The activation key will be displayed on the final page, after you'll click the "Activate" button.

5. Enter your activation key into the box in the game startup window and click "Registration" button.
