My friend has been getting a CD key authentication error trying to log in. I believe he, like many of us, has a few different keys floating around but we have not been able to figure it out. Would it be possible to get his keys cleared?

Hi KE,
Have you had a chance to look this over? We tried to log zbicott in on Sunday but he is still getting an error message.

Your account has been set to accept a new key.
Please post here once you have logged in with the new key, and I will use it to swap over your bank and wallet.
Welcome back!
Funky

You can't use the GoG public key. If you did it before using an actual key, it would've removed the 'Adding' flag. I've reset it for you to add another key. Please try again. Post back here either way, as I will then have to xfer bank items over.
Best, Funky

So we tried again the other night. I have been trying to help remotely. The first log in attempt said he was missing hak files(which he was able to play just fine a couple months ago). We didn't look at it great so tried again to see what haks. The second attempt it said invalid cd key authorization again. We downloaded the haks again for his folder and tried to log in. He got another invalid cd key authorization. Not sure where to go from here. Maybe a fresh install?

Thanks Funky, No rush. I think when zbicott has time he might just need to start fresh so we can have a controlled situation. His nwn folder is in choas.

I've added the key you were trying to log in with. Please try again.
Thanks, Funky

We tried his old set of keys and his GOG keys. Neither worked. Not sure what is to blame.

This is not enough information for me to be able to help. I need to know what is happening, what messages he is getting, and so on.
Thanks, Funky

I went through and reapplied all the haks/cep to make sure we were good there. Starting the game with nwmain.exe he is able to get to character selection. Trying to enter the game he gets booted with the CD key authentication denied message. We tried using the nwmain-169-hg.exe and he was booted saying he was missing an cep file. Although I thought that we had just applied it. Unsure why there would be a discrepancy between the two. Also unsure what happened to his folder to cause this as he was running everything just fine a few months back. He has an old set of keys probably from a hard copy of the game or possibly the generic GOG keys. He also has a set of personal keys from GOG. We tried both and got the error both times.
