V5 install problem- then more problems... :/

[eliam]

Well, well, in my eagerness to try the new plugins I took the plunge and tried to install scope 5... A dumb move it seems...

When feeding the installer with my new keyfile it just refused the new keys, saying "key import failed"...

hmmm

So, I tried to revert back to the old drivers, uninstalled V5 and all, and 1 of my 6 dsp boards won't be satisfied with the good ol 4.5 driver and requests a scPci wdm driver, which is associated to scope 5... And SFP won't work without this card, not sure why...

I physically removed the card, rebooted, turned-off, put the card back, rebooted, same thing... It won't install. So I'm here between 2 chairs, with no access to my scope cards... That'S frustrating.

I wrote SC to tell them about the problem, I hope to have a fix ASAP...

Now if anyone has an idea on how I can get it working the old way, please let me know...

Thanks

i would try :
-un-install scope 5 and remove cards from device manager, reboot,
install back 4.5 and manually install cards -driver back in device manager,

did you send scope.rgy, where you had all keys installed ?
first i send wrong allkeys.sfk and a lot of devices where missing there, cause
a lot were installed manually after last allkeys.sfk was created,
so all information with keys for all plugins was in scope.rgy



just a guess.....

A message appeared telling me that "the hardware is type 16, needed a software update", or something similar (??????????)

Can somebady give advice?

Thanks

Thanks for the input, yes I tried all this, but when I try to re-install the board it wants a wdm driver from the V5 location (which has been deleted) and the installation fails...

yes, but what if you try to re-locate (browse) to sfp 4.5/driver folder and add from there ?

[eliam]

Actually this happens after I've specified the 4.5 driver's location, while the drivers are being installed.

... and the old driver will not work at this point...

Have you read THIS http://forums.planetz.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=27566 ? Its really not rocket science.

I recommend turning OFF 4.5 before installation of V5.
Then rename the 4.5 folder to something else (i.e. Scope4.5_backup)

I also highly recommend burning an image of your system prior to installation.

It is called a release candidate for a reason
You are betatesting and expecting a finnished software? That is not very clever.

[eliam]

I communicated with SC who sent me 2 more "activation keys" (for a total of 3), all of which were rejected by the installer...

I managed to revert to 4.5 thanks to my scope folder backup.

Am I the only one having this ("import of key file failed!") problem?

[next to nothing]

You aren't trying to install v5 to scope 4.5 folder by any chance?

[eliam]

no, and I don't plan to try anything until the official V5 release... I need to work with my system.
