There already is a home run siren mod, if you just look in the correct category (Mods/2K12/Audio). Here it is: Also, I think it has been included in the 2K15 total mod

I do own the cd for the game, but I never had to reinstall it, so far, not even when I switched to an SSD a few weeks ago, so I cannot really help there. But I doubt there are limitations, honestly. If I were you, I would still go after one of these hard copies. I might go after one myself, to keep as a backup. You never know...

Wow, I'm sorry that happened. Just wondering, what's the limit?

You need to load the roster from inside the game. Go to Options - Load Roster and then load the roster you want to use.

Sooooooo in the end everything worked just fine! I left the game installed and it was properly "copied" onto the new SSD, and it still works as expected. I clocked my laptop at above 3 minutes to fully boot properly with the 7200 RPM HDD, while with the new SSD the boot time is just under a minute. Unbelievable stuff. Also I just added new thermal paste and replaced my noisy fan, so this should give my laptop a few extra years of life! Thanks for your help, guys!

How do I do that, KC? And do you mean just the Windows product key or just every key?

I'm excited! Welcome back!

I'm sure it's gonna be a huge step forward but I'll let you know how it goes, once I put it in and test it out. I am expecting big things I recently upgraded to 8gbs of ram too, so I should be good for a while, considering it's a 3 and a half years old laptop with a quadcore. Keep your eyes on the daily deals on Amazon (I found it on Amazon Italy), one day mine was $170, the next it was $140 just for 10 hours, they're getting cheaper!

Mkay, should be all clear now! Thanks guys If anyone else wants to chime in, feel free to!

I didn't think of getting a proper docking station for it, but I did get this cable with my order. http://www.amazon.com/StarTech-SATA-Drive-Adapter-Cable/dp/B00HJZJI84/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1453888143&sr=8-1&keywords=usb+sata+cable How is clonezilla better than the stock software from Samsung? Is it safer? Faster? So summing things up, you guys recommend to keep the game as it is on my hard drive and clone it on my new SSD, right? Thanks for the replies

I will look into that. I haven't received the SSD yet, so I have no idea what the migration tool even looks like. As for right now, I backed the game up on an external hard drive, but I might do a full system backup anyway.

Thanks for the quick reply! Actually I was planning to uninstall all programs and games I downloaded, since they won't be much of a hassle to get back, except for the time to redownload them all, and backup the eventual saves/mods I have (for games like Fifa), bringing my laptop to an almost new state. My only issue is with MLB 2K12, which is the only game/program I own that I installed from CD (got it at Walmart during a trip in the States and to this day it's the best thing I brought back from there lol).

So I've been planning this for a few weeks, but thanks to a flash sale on Amazon, I just got myself a 500GB Samsung 850 EVO SSD to switch with my 4 year old 500 GB Sata HDD in my Win7 laptop (nope, not planning on switching OS quite yet!). First of all I would like to ask if anyone on the forums has switched to and SSD already and if they have noticed improvements in games like 2K12 or MVP. Yeah, I am still quite a noob about this kind technology and everything... anyway, I read that Samsung gives you a program that allows you to burn your previous HDD onto the new SSD, so in theory I should be able to copy everything. To speed up the process I thought about uninstalling most programs that I can easily get again (like games on Steam and Origin) and saving data like pictures and music on external hard drives. But what do you guys recommend I do with CD-Rom games, like MLB 2K12? Should I leave it installed as it is, or is it safe to uninstall it and then reinstall it after I replace hard drives (of course I would backup all the mods first)? Sorry if it's a stupid question, but like I said, I've never done anything like this, and my main fear is that the game will not reinstall because the activation key has already been used. Thanks in advance!
