PC crash : how to recover my TG games ?

from Stardock Forums
Well, my PC (I think it's the motherboard) just broke down yesterday : absolutely everything digital I had, including all serials, passwords and all, were on it !
I hope I'll get it repaired/refit soon, I really hope the HD is intact (the proble ids not HD related, the PC doesn't even try to access it and keep rebooting before the BIOS screen...) but in the meantime I'd like to install/play TG games (GC2 mostly )on my wife's brand new notebook.
Can I just dl the Stardock client, log in with my account (nick/password, I remember these), and get everything again ?
I think I'll need some serials, and I have none (I get GC2 digitally from TG so don't have any box/manual/whatever). What can I do ?

You should be good to go as you described. Just install Stardock Central on your wife's system under your account and you'll be able to install your TGN games. SDC should handle the serial numbers for you automatically, but if not you can have an email sent with them. Just put your email address into the form on this page:

No idea at all on that one. Try asking on the Guild Wars forums, I'm sure someone there would have some idea.

Re my initial post : in fact the PC only had a power problem, I changed the power unit and it's working again now.
BTW the Stardock system is very cool and customer-friendly, as it doesn't rely on hard-to-safekeep serial codes, protected CDs and so on that many publishers are very fond of and that make you "lose" the game whenever you want to reinstall and have lost the serial or lost/scratched the CD...

I think I'll still use the opportunity to install some games on the laptop during holidays or trips (when I won't use the desktop simultaneously, I think it's OK with the EULA).


Thx Stardock !

It is.

Thanks and have fun!
