Activate CD Key on Steam, not working please help!

Hi everyone

I've had physical copies of all DoW 1 games for years, I want to now replay them and add them to my steam. DoW1 had no trouble, went through as gold edition, however Dark Crusade and Winter Assault won't recognise any keys and now DoW1 is in Steam Winter Assault doesn't recognise the game and won't install either.

Can anyone please shed some light? I don't want to have to buy the other two games on steam again! Apparently Soulstorm has no problem with steam... Thanks!

Thanks for quick reply mate. A quick dig on Steam found me a thing about existing retail keys and making them Steam friendly. So for anyone else with this problem use this link, hopefully I hear back but will be nice having all my hard copies digitally loaded on steam forever!

Thanks again for quick response

Did we find a resolution for this? I have the same problem. I was able to add DOW vanilla and Soulstorm but my keys for Winter Assault and Dark Crusade do not work.

Did you follow the SEGA support link, above?

I filled out the contact us form... that is all that is at that link right? I didn't see anything else.

If you've submitted a request they should get back to you. I'm not sure how they get back to you, I presume via email.

Never heard back on this. Not a huge deal but would be nice to be able to use those keys.

That link has been dead for a while. It just errors out.

It IS kind of a big deal to me.

Hi Mods @Gorb ,,, I have a physical copy of DOW 2 and have been trying to install it since 2 days. Have installed steam and updated it too. For the game, half is done via disk but for other 3 gb of installations, it is trying to download via steam, can't do that due to colleges restriction on Steam downloads. Please suggest how to complete the installation using Disk ( minor downloads =< 300 mbs acceptable) ... Please HELP !!!!

You can't. That's probably why your university has limits in the first place, sorry.
