After installing Scope 5 it doesnt right work. After starting the DAw I've got these two errors you can see below. Does anyone have a solution????

Thanx

Have you disabled the V4.5 startup at boot? This is most likely the problem. If you have more than one card, it's also possible that you don't have V5 drivers for all of them. There are threads about both of these issues here on PlanetZ.

4.5 is disabled in the startup and the Scope 5 Key is for both cards. Maybe I should delete Scope 4.5

if you're trying to use xtc mode, then you have to select the new driver in the sequencer. the sequncer is trying to open the old version. in order to use xtc mode, there's a hack you have to do which is elsewhere in these forums. xtc mode is not officially supported in v5 yet...

This error messages are dirctly after boot - it's far away from XTC mode - maybe I must reinstall the Software...???

those messages are from v4.5 trying to start, but the old driver is gone, replaced by the v5 driver so the old program can't start and it gives you that notice. go to start/run/msconfig/startup and then uncheck SFP or C:/Scope_4_5 or whatever form Scope shows up as in the menu. you shouldn't get the message anymore.

you can also rename your Scope 4.5 folder to something like xxxxScope_4_5_ so that windows can't even find the 4.5 folder, but the files won't get lost. if you still get "can't start" errors, then reinstall the v5 driver....

yes, renaming Scope 4.5 folder to Scope4.5_bak worked for me.
Turn off Scope 4.5 in startup via msconfig.

Then your system should only see V5.
