Yep I suspect it's a registry issue, but have know idea where to look. I'm wondering if the activation code I was given when I bought the new boards and software had some sort of expiration date, although it's not mentioned in any of the literature from CMC. I could wring the guys neck at CMC..I suspect he knew darn well they were going under when he sold me the upgrade in December'08. By the end of January their phone was disconnected.
