Now, I have a problem. I bought the NA version of this game (imported offcourse, as I live in Europe) on the day of NA release. And like three weeks ago, my computer crashed, which ment I had to reinstall FFXI and POL on my second computer (that I got the week before ironically, just never got around to it).

The problem is that I had to install the EU version on it (since my NA disc is gone) that I had bought for CoP (which was completely useless, btw, as you can't use the EU key for the NA version, which ment I ended up with 2 versions of FFXI to CoP for both NA and EU).

Now, my REAL problem is, that once ToAU comes, I won't be able to register the NA or EU version (as my POL-ID is for the NA version and can't be recognized by the EU version of POL)...

Now to my question, is ir possible to maybe change the version I have installed on my computer from EU version to NA version by changing the registry values or something, or do I have to buy another NA version of the game and reinstall it (since I lost my NA version somewhere... been looking but can't find it)?

This post might sound pretty confusing, but I hope you atleast understood my problem, heh.
 
Well if you have EU POL/FFXI/Cop you should stick to TOA in EU version, if you lost your NA version errr.... don't use NA version one lol, maybe contacting playonline rep will be better, but I hardly doubt they do anything

that's the thing <.<; if I buy the EU version of it, I can't register it, and thus not play (as my PlayOnline ID is for the NA version, and I can't register the EU version on a NA POL ID) =/

[GM]Vandoura: How may I help you today.
Uzor: {Um...} I need to ask you a question.
Uzor: I have NA ID but I lost my NA CD, and only thing I have is EU CD, and I can't register my NA ID to EU ID.
[GM]Vandoura: I'm sorry, I cannot help you with that. I suggest you get another copy of Final Fantasy XI CD.
[GM]Vandoura: Is there anything else I can help you with?

Expect the simlar thing will happen when you ask GM Uzor lol
 
nah, not really :P He told me to borrow it from a friend XD

Soo... I guess I'll ask some Swedish people if I can borrow their POL CD <.<;
