How to install ClOD on new computer?
 
I have a new Computer. I have Cliffs installed on my old computer, but haven't "flown" it in a year due to graphics card failure.

How do I install CloD on the new computer? Do I install it from my original DVD, using the same original Registration Key Code? Will that automatically connect me to my Steam Account?

I also have original DVDs and Key Codes for Shogun 2 and Homefront which are on my Steam account, so I have the same question regarding those games.

I have the same question for my two Call of Duty games at Steam (for which I do NOT have original DVDs any longer).

After I have Cliffs installed and recognized at Steam, how/where do I get the latest patch? Is the latest patch comprehensive, including all mods/patches/etc made over the past 18 months?

Any help/sadvice will be appreciated.

Install steam, then login to your steam account. Then install from disk or steam... Simple. ;)

Thanks.

Another question: Would ClOD benefit from being installed on my new Solid State Drive rather than my 7200RPM HDD?

Yes, you could put your OS on there too for faster boots.

I just got a new i7 quad core computer system with windows 8. Set up FSX with all my add-ons with no problem. Runs great.

Next went for first time install of IL-2 COD from new disc purchase. Accessed my Steam Account. Activated IL-2 COD. Steam loaded and updated everything with no error messages. I verified the cache, etc. When I try to run COD either from desktop or from my Steam Library I get the message "Installing Microsoft VC Redistributable Package (step 1 of 1)"..... then nothing. No message. No error. No crash. No nothing ? ? ? I'm guessing a problem with version of Visual C or Net Framework or ? Don't have a clue how to proceed from here.

Edit: Here's the fix. Works great

I just installed activated Borderlands 2 (A Free coupon which came with my new GeForce graophics Card....not a game I would want/buy).

As happens with many (all?) Steam activations I see the VC redistributable msg...I never understand why, because i obviously must already have the "Package" installed on my PC from otehr Games. I've never had a problem with running a game after that VC Redist window closes.

Wish I could be of help, but that's all I know.
