ET on Windows 7
Ok, just got my computer updated. Have my new 500 gig HD with Win 7 and my secondary HD with Win XP.
I am going to attempt to download ET on my new HD with 7. I haven't done this in a long time. Besides downloading ET, I notice there is patch 2.60 and 2.60b- which one do I need?
Anything else? I fairly sure I save my key on a thumb drive-(we will see)
Thanks!

When I try to log on any server it says;
Game Code (ui_mp_x86.dll) failed Pure Server Check.
Any clues?
A lot off people have the same problem
I get on the server and PB kicks meoff within a few seconds. I did copy my old key into my etmain folder. When I went on the server I did notice I had the same xp as when I left ad my BBA tags were on.tromort wrote:You copied your old etkey into THE new etmain folder, right?
A/w does pb gives an error when it kickes you?
hm, since I didn't had time to install win7 again myself, I don't know which of the solutions will work..
you could try to make sure pb service is installed correctly by running this: http://www.evenbalance.com/downloads/pbsvc/pbsvc.exe
or try this: http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/wi ... -territory
or start>run>services / start>search>services
->pnkbstra & pnkbstrb >properties>check allow this service to interact with the desktop
hopefully I can find some time soon to install it again myself.
