Thanks Roy. Once a long time ago Bryan replied to me when I had the same problem and suggested I clone my hdd. I use acronis true image 2012 and back up all my drives. I have four in my pc and 2 in my laptop. Of course you realize that the computer recognizes the hard drive that you boot off as your c drive. For as long as I can remember since uising any MTU product I am able use either drive I wish as a clone is an exact image of the source disc. The product I am using is Hoster 5.10 but when I check the version it shows 5.11. The registration problem seems to only happen when for some reason windows has me reactivate my product, whioch I don't why it does this either. Then when I bring up MTU progs I get the error message my serial no does not match their records. Sometimes songverter will go right back in and sometimes it won't. The other products do the same thing. I get the message that the program is installed on two computers even if I remove the programs.

The problem with Hoster just happened this past Weds while I was running my normal karaoke show. I had to reboot Hoster. As you said windows task manager said it was running as well as the search, but they were no where to be found. I removed 5,10 and reinstalled 5.05 and have not had a problem yet. I don't know how to get the version just before 5.10 I believe it is 5.09 Any other ideas. Thanks Alan PS I ripped 13,000 songs and added them to hoster easily thanks to you. Thanks again Alan
