    Man, this sucks. Has anyone else had this problem?

    I send my authorization request & serial to NI and get back an authentication code within a few hours (from memory).

    After pasting it into the Reg tool I get the message:
    "Reaktor is successfully authorized
    Now you can close the application."

    When I start Reaktor however:
    "Your systemconfiguration was changed.
    Please use the Registration Tool in the application folder to register Reaktor."

    If I repaste the auth code, I get the same thing.

    So I try the 4.0.006 update, figuring this could be a bug.
    Now I get:
    "Authorization incomplete."

    I've uninstalled R4 and reinstalled it and try to re-authorize. Same as before. Your sysconfig etc.....

    But I do have another 30 days on it.

    Am I the only one who would prefer a dongle system?

    I have a killer ensemble in mind (don't we all?), but am very reluctant to start work if I can't get this damn thing to run.

    Oh yeah, I'm running XP on a 2GHz P4 with 768Mb RAM, if that's makes any difference.

    Thanks for any help ...

    I emailed NI a couple of days ago, and no word ... not happy (I paid $1200 Australian for this thing, when I could have coded it in something else for free.)

    The 4.01.006 update is Mac only-there's your authorization incomplete.
    As for the"Your system configuration has changed"routine,did you reinstall your OS,add RAM or anything like that?(or do a System Restore back to before you installed Reaktor,in XP's case?)Your configuration's changed-therefor the old regcode ISN'T going to work.Do as the prompt says and run your Registration Tool again.

    My mistake, I meant yht 4.01.005 update for PC.

    Anyway, I have changed NOTHING in my system since installing Reaktor. Have not upgraded ANY hardware or the OS for *6 months*.

    When I try the reg tool again, it gives the same auth key, and again accepts the auth code sent to me by NI.

    But Reaktor will still only run in 30-day mode.

    I ran into a similar problem (See http://www.nativeinstruments.de/ind...d7659f96e3fe56f2b86bcf0d8006217&threadid=4825) for intimate details

    but you best bet is to phone tech support, i emailed and emailed and emailed and still have heard nothing back

    but i also started to phone tech support and was finally successful in getting it straightened out

    It seems they are a bit swamped right now with the release of r4, sessions and Final Scratch

    You will probably have to leave a message with tech support but they phoned back the same day as long as you get the message in soon enough in the day

    I totally agree about the "Return Of The Dongle"

    Who ever sold the idea of this reg system should be fired today

    Cheers
