I have UT 2003 with a serial code I found on-line. Now that I have purchase the game, how can I change the serial code in the game?

Easiest way is to deinstall and reinstall.

Maybe there is a way to change it in the registry but I can't see it on my system.

that's what I'm worried about, after I uninstall does it still keep the serial key in the registry?

I should not keep it.
He asks during the installation as far as I remember.

When you re-install, it should ask for a serial key.

At which point if the old one is still in the reg, the new one will overwrite it.

You bought the game, good job, you're legit, dont sweat it.

what you could have done is just go into the registry find the existing key and replace the old one with the new one it should work from there. im glad you got it worked out
