Please read the entire thing before you jump to conclusions. I know it sounds like I'm seeking advice on pirating, but I'm not.
The thing is ... I have a new computer. This computer, however, doesn't have a disc drive! So, I'm having to buy an external one.
My new computer only has a few USB ports. I want to keep my two front USB ports available as much as possible. As such, I'd prefer to only have to plug in the external disc drive when I absolutely have to.
I know there are some sites where I can get some code to make the game think that the disc is in the tray. To protect against full-blown game piracy, this code only works if the game has already been installed by legit means.
I absolutely can prove, beyond any reasonable doubt, that I bought the game legitimately. I can produce all five discs (three for the vanilla game, and two for BtS), the two instructions manuals that came with them, and the jewel case that contains the discs. I can also produce an email receipt that I obtained from Ebay when I first purchased this game.
So, now that you know I bought the game legit, and I have a legit reason for wanting this bypass code that isn't related to simply pirating the game, can somebody please send me a PM (that way, no would-be pirates could get the link from this thread) showing me where to get this bypass code?
In the future, I'll just download off steam. But I don't think I should have to pay extra to re-purchase a game I already have.
