Can original pc games be used again on the pc

[divJ]

i have a fifa 12 gta IV and ac revelations
i want to upgrade my pc with a new processor, board, ram and gfx card
so i wanna know if those games can be played on the new pc?
i suspect that problems may arise due to the serial key thing though i have it

if your key is legit then there should be no issue. mast game manufactures that use limited install security allow up to 10 installs on different machines. and often unlimited on the same machine, you are likely to have to reinstall your o.s or at the least do a repair install but 1s done and your windows is genuine the game should have no issues.

key is 200% legit but windows aint gonna be genuine

 

[divJ]

so will it work ?

 

[HEXiT]

yes it should... if it doesnt just go onto the fifa forums and they will point you to customer service.

 

[divJ]

Over the years I have installed the a number of such games on several different - genuine - operating systems, including fresh installs, and reinstalls, with no problem.http://img.tomshardware.com/forum/uk/icones/biggrin.gif

i dont wanna know about the genuine windows...
i want to know about the pirated versions

 

[HEXiT]

then you need to close your account and look somewhere where they allow theft and piracy... toms doesnt encourage, endorse or help pirates steal from software writers.
i have already told you what you will need to do its now up to you to take a chance

It is against forum policy to discuss piracy whether it is the Operating System, a game or a program.

I suggest you join another forum that does not care about piracy.

You won’t even need to reinstall if you are using the same hard drive and the fact that windows is not genuine won’t make a difference.
