what exactly is the CDKEY? lol I never heard of it. Again, i DON'T have a pirated copy so I don't know if it's talking about verification of a bought item or what. Anyway, thanks again!

I am not an expert on CD keys, but what it does is let you use the program. Its there so people cant pirate the CDs and sell them. I think the CD key goes into the registry, thats why it looks like registry keys in regedit.

How to get to the registry:

1. To to Start > Run.
2. Type in 'regedit'
3. Look around for the game.
4. Um... Maybe check if you can find the numbers/letters you typed in for the CD key verification.

Gary, follow this:

http://mohaa.xgshosting.com/joe/installguide.htm

After you follow that, DON'T install the patch just yet. Goto your soundcards website (http://www.creative.com, most likely), download the newest sound drivers for your game, and put them somewhere quick to access, DON'T install them yet.

Install the patch, install the sound drivers, reboot, run config.exe from the MOH directory for Spearhead, then try booting the game.

CDKEY = the code you put in when you first install the game. It's possible you have a bad CD. About 1 out of every 2,000 CD's has a bad CD-KEY. You may just need to replace your Spearhead disc, as the patch won't work properly with it.

damnit Gary! It might be a problem with the Omaha 2 map! All you have to do is delete the ubersound.scr file from Omaha2 maps file.
