I am assuming you want to uninstall the game off the hard disk when you say
"deactivate". Part of the "new standard" for game installs is that the program icons are gone, so there isn't a "uninstall" icon any more. What you need to do is go to the control panel. If you are in "Classic View" select "Programs and Features" and then you can pick Halo2 and click uninstall. If you are in the "Control Panel Home" view, select "Uninstall a program" under the "Programs" icon. Hope that helps! Mark "Jaimie" wrote in message ...

You can't, once activated, that's it, you can uninstall the game from the "Programs and Features" control panel icon, but you can't deactivate Windows software. You CAN reactivate the game on a different computer, but you'll probably end up calling Microsoft's automatied activation line and have to tell them that the game is only installed on one computer and you uninstalled it off the old one. In other words if you're trying to sell the software, make sure you uninstall your copy first so the other person won't have too much trouble getting it working. Good luck, A. |
