2. IMPORTANT NOTE
These instructions refer to a tool that is only for use with the Retail DVD version of BioShock, it will
not work with the Steam or Direct2Drive versions of this title.
3. Introduction
The PC Version of BioShock requires a live internet connection for installation and activation. Once the
installation is complete and the game has been activated you no longer need to be online to play or run the
game, though you will need to keep the BioShock DVD in the drive to start BioShock up.
Once an activation has been made, the number of available activations on your specific activation code is
reduced accordingly on the activation server. The BioShock Revoke Tool, is designed to clear the activation
license off of the user's machine and contact the activation server to free up the revoked license for future
use.
For a summary of the activation limits, please see the section named
Online Activation Limits Explained
"Loading the manual" means you need to wait until the file loads and becomes available for online reading. Some manuals are very large, and the time they take to appear depends on your internet speed.
