No luck with win 7 or 8

[sinister222]

Hello all
I have had no luck with another thread concerning windows seven so maybe somebody can help me with windows 8. I have 3 machines with win 7, 2 of which I formatted and re installed new 7 on and could not get TL2 to work on any of them. Fresh WOT installs, uninstall net and C++ and installed the correct versions for TL2 with the utility and always the same thing, add a tank, press play and TL2 locks.

So.... after 8 days and about 50+ hours of fighting it I went out today and bought 2 new machines, a desktop and notebook. They are both win8 (I couldn't find a new win7 machine anywhere) Came home, installed WOT and TL2 and same thing. ( i know the net frame in 8 is non removable and it wont let me install 4.5 for anything) Add a tank, click start and presto, instant TL2 lock same as the other machines. I have spent alot of hours, alot of money $1100 USD and alot of patience with this and have yet to use my lifetime key.

Does anyone have an idea? I am willing to travel east coast U.S., Or allow remote assistance or even ship one of the notebooks if somebody thinks they can beat this thing. This is 5 machines for me at home, 4 at work and between several of my WOT friends here a total of 17 computers that all do the same thing and i'm betting it is something simple but no amount of scouring the forums and experimenting has worked yet. I see several of you have posted that you used win8 so how about some advice please.

Thank you in advance

You have bad luck.

How about VMware. It is not good solution but it takes some problems away...

I got it working and now I must remind myself that Bot is running there, no "mouse_call_back", no blinking cursor, it just make wierd movements some times because ping is changing...

Hi Glommy
I have no idea what vmware is, what it does or where to get it. But I will google and read up, at least it is something new to try.

Thanks

Wow, thats a bit more than I can handle... I read and only got confused about what it does, how it works, how to get or install it and it seems to need at least 422 semesters at the university to even understand booting a machine it is installed on.

The bot seems simple enough, yet from my reading seems incompatible with most computers. Instead of the software working with current and common machines and software the machine has to be just right, and you have to reinstall older and outdated software to to be compatible with it and it is frustrating. Most of the user problems for months have been the same as mine, press start and it locks and all but one or 2 instances seem to go unsolved the same as mine. My money is good, I bought the best key going and spent good money trying new and faster hardware with no luck. Does anybody know what hardware I should buy? I will buy it. Tell me what exact version and build of windows to get and thats what I will do no matter the price. Tell me the exact version of any software I need that I dont already have or have tried and I will try that, I will do whatever it takes to get this thing going, pay whoever I have to pay whatever amount I need to pay because I refuse to fail here.

My apology if this seems a little harsh as that is not my intention at all, only my frustration. Is there anyone who actually knows this software and why so many of us are locking when we hit start and why TL2 has a problem like that for this amount of time with no solution? ZIf it is just not going to happen, or just not going to work for me just pop my money back on my card and I'll move right along. But collecting it then leaving myself and everybody else with the lock when hit start problem is not cool. I used and loved TL1 and would give a nice sum to have it still work, or anything that worked at all at this point.

I don't know why it's locking for you, but I'd love to find out. Can I take remote control of your machine whenever it suits you soon? You can send me a PM with your Skype username so we can get in touch.
