The solution to this is to continue an old save, and THEN pick new game.

Hey, Thanks, Lord Felix! I consider this a very useful piece of information. I can find the 19-digit code, if I have to; but I really don't care to re-enter it, if I don't have to. Between typos, other digital clumsiness, and my innate dislike of DRM implementations, I am better off not having to do this. (I understand the practical need for DRM requirements, and the one accompanying this game is more reasonable than many,
but they really annoy me, nonetheless.)
Anyways, when I finish my current game (which may take a while -- I am currently up to Sector 41,
and having lots of Fun!), I will start a new "sacrificial" game, load the Update, resume my saved game, commit Hari-kari very quickly, and then start a new game for real. Most people would probably consider this strange; but it will tend to make me much happier. Thanks!
