I guess we're back to the 'faulty warning light' theory.

Precisely the
opposite of what Don and I found when re-testing this just an hour or so back.
Don sent over 2 start-up PBEM games to me
- 1 using the stock v4.0 OOBS - PASS
- 1 with
edited OOBS - FAIL
So - I will need a copy of the 2 OOBS you are using, and a copy of your opponents ones as well. Then I can run a simple DOS DIFF command on the files.
Does your game state "V4.0(CD or DL)" and does your opponent's game also state V4.0?.
My best guess at the moment though is that you did some sort of Mobhack edit on your own files (since your game install is now complaining about your secondary install) - try copying the OOBS from the second (fresh) install back into your own OOB folder and try again. If the problem goes away, then you
did do something
!).
I will also assume you are using Winzip, rather than the RAR compressed file type. RAR seems to cause problems for some folk if both do not use the
exact same RAR programme. I would avoid RAR completely.
