Error 7 when installing Hoster

[xurne]

I had to format my hard drive yesterday to reinstall a new copy of windows xp. Now when I try to re-install Hoster I get a message saying error "7", contact MTU. Can anyone help? Thanks!

its the email address you are using while installing. its wrong.

The email address is the original registration email address. It is spelled correctly. I have double checked things with my order history provided by MTU. There should be no problem with the email address I'm using. What else could be the problem? Did I wipe out or change some "code" when I formatted my hard drive and re-installed windows xp?

Thanks!

did you try and restore your computer to an earlier time ??

I don't have any restore points where Hoster was still installed. Would it matter if I used a different Windows XP disk to install Windows XP? I did not recieve a Windows XP disk when I purchased my laptop. So, I used a Windows XP install disk from an old desktop I had, and used the product key from the Windows XP sticker on the bottom of my laptop. I did have to call Microsoft to get a new registration number. I have a backup laptop with Hoster installed thankfully. But, I would like to get this laptop up and running with Hoster. It is my prefered laptop. I appreciate all the help!

Thanks!

Still unable to download Hoster. Error 7 apparently means the email address and registration # don't match. I am at a loss why I get this message when I copy and paste the email address and registration # right from my original download. Where do I go from here?
