Where is my Elemental?

Not sure where else to put this...

I'm using my brother's laptop (on holiday) and so downloaded and fired up Impulse to play my games, of which some show up BUT not Elemental (my other Impulse games are HoI III and East India Company). I've downloaded impulse twice but Elemental still wont show up. Any suggestions? Am i missing something obvious??

>.<  did you remember to check "show pre-release programs" in the options.   You have to do that on every computer you install Impulse if you want beta software.  It isn't carried by your profile

I have the same issue, but my alpha/pre-release button is on. I assumed there was some sort of activation limit. Is there some reason why I wouldn't have Elemental?

If you didn't pre-order within the deadline, you can't get into Beta 1. You will have Beta 2, though, when it's out. And as Frogboy himself said, it won't have bugs that make your hard-drive crash or install rootkits on your system.

he was joking, of course

I know that. I preordered a long time ago. Thing is, I can run it on my laptop, but my desktop computer no. I also remembered to register it. Is there only limit 1 copy per account, or did I need to register on both my computers before the deadline, or what?

I figured it out. I was right clicking on the quickstart icon to set preferences, when I actually needed to go into impulse click on the doohicky in the top left corner. So it was my fault. Thanks anyway!
