    thank you so much!

  • This is VERY interesting to learn there is a download limit on top of the SecuROM limit.

    "Every time the download button is clicked, a download count will be added to your lifetime total. If you have installed your game via Origin on more than three computers within a ten day period, you will need to wait until the first installation expires.

    Note: Re-installing your operating system, or interrupting a current download, will count as a new computer installation."

    It would be nice to know these little rules BEFORE you get the error.

    the rep should have freed up the game for you to have a new licence...did you try downloading again ?
