Let me guess. You've downloaded the Home of the Underdogs Version and want to make it into a full copy?

If so have a look at this

If not tell us some more about your problem.

Ok, well, we could help if you tell us what the hell you're trying to do. Does your account that you're playing the game on have access to the registry? What error messages do you get? What's your system? What happens when you try to run it?

These are things that we need to know to help you, you can't just say "It won't work" and expect us to know what to do.
Sorry for the mean tone of this post, I'm not in the best of moods.
