Changing Reg.code

[George]

You can't use the floppy from the old machine. It is trying to install on a machine that did not create it, and the info does not agree. You must start fresh.

If the new pc is on the internet you don't need to do a floppy install.

If not then you must create the floppy on the new machine and then take the floppy to a pc that is on the internet to get the registration info imbedded on it, just as you did when you first started out, then finish the installation on the new machine.

Wow George,Iwish I could get my head round all this.I am on the net on my new Lappy so do I have to get in touch with MTU to re-install it ,and if so ,what address do I use.I'm pleased you told me I don't need the floppy as I was thinking that opening a vein would solve everything.I'm getting to old to be humping loads of books and discs and players around so I'm really looking foreward to finally getting up and running with just a laptop.I am now using more gear than when I was a muso,once again thanks for your time and advice.I'll persevere now till I get it sorted, Cheers.

The following link takes you to the FAQ explaining how to download a product you have previously purchased.

Once you have the new product on your pc, make sure you are on line, and start the installation process. The install program will automatically contact MTU with your pc data necessary to complete the installation.

Take care,

George

Forums were down and didn't get back in time to add that if you still have your email containing the your personal download link and your registration code, you can simply download and install without going through the store as I described above.

I believe this is still valid until the end of this year at which time those download links can still be used as they will direct you to your account at the store.

That's my understanding.
