Dimpro - Old problem. Registration time out

I've got the dimpro registration time out problem.  I thought I'd fixed it.  This is the 1.5 version that came w/ SONAR X2.  It took my reg # but never got out of demo mode.  And I've got a song that needs some serious strings.
 
If anybody remembers the trick for this w/o getting too far into the computer weeds please refresh my mind.
 
Thanks,

Did you use the reg# that came with X2? Older numbers will not work with it. Only other thing is register using the standalone running as administrator.

Thanks, but that didn't do it.
 
I thought there was some routine you had to do in msconfig to get rid of earlier versions.
 
I'll have to take the wayback machine, I guess.

Clean install process http://www.cakewalk.com/S...reader.aspx/2007013238
except use X2 serial number. Copy off the programs and multisample directories if you have extra libraries and reintegrate them after the re-install.

Ah, thanks.  I'll try that one next.

One more thing, if you need the old DXi too, you might be better off performing a clean re-installing of an older version of DimPro and use the support page updates to get to v1.5. That would also leave the v1.2 DXi for older projects. You would need one of your older registration numbers to register the old version. Copying the programs and multisamples before the deleting for re-install can save some time getting everything back.

After following the steps in the support I realize I have a downloaded copy of X2 (and yes, I tore up the studio looking for a hard copy before looking at the disk drive - death to the dust bunnies!).
 
Anybody done a dimpro install from X2 RC3 or another download version?
 
Thanks

What is X2 RC3? There is a version of DimPro in the X2 Producer link in your store account. It is a separate installer from X2. There are two files:
04_Dimension_Pro_1_5_Setup.exe the actual DimPro installer and
04_Dimension_Pro_1.5_Expansion_Packs.zip the expansion packs

Scook,
 
I guess I need to talk to Cake.  I've got no separate downloads for DP 1.5.  Just the X2.
 
Thanks, you're a wealth of help.

That is odd. In the download link for X2 Producer should be a bunch of files including DimPro:
1. 00_SONAR_X2_Installation_Instructions_Link.rtf
2. 01_Read_This_First.exe
3. 02_SONAR_X2_Producer.part1.exe
4. 02_SONAR_X2_Producer.part2.exe
5. 02_SONAR_X2_Producer.part3.exe
6. 02_SONAR_X2_Producer.part4.exe
7. 03_Loops_And_One_Shots.part1.exe
8. 03_Loops_And_One_Shots.part2.exe
9. 03_Loops_And_One_Shots.part3.exe
10. 04_Dimension_Pro_1.5_Expansion_Packs.zip
11. 04_Dimension_Pro_1_5_Setup.exe
12. 05_SONAR_X2_Producer_Additional_Content.exe

Scook,
 
I got it sorted out w/ Cakewalk.  It was a review version of X2.

I will be very interested to hear your results...I went through the same thing, and learned that I had to start Cakewalk in <Run as Administrator> mode for the reg code to work. I still haven't been able to get a full load of samples, however. I get lots of .sz not found when I'm running DP. The files are missing but the shortcuts in the DP browser are there. Very frustrating...only maybe 10-15% of the voices work, even in the Extra packs...

- Sonar Platinum 64-bit; Reaper; Ableton Live 9; Samplitude
- PugetSystems Serenity Mini: WIN 10-PRO 64-bit; Intel Quad i7-4670 turbo to 3.8GHz; 16GB RAM; ASUS Gryphon Z89 - Antec P180 case. 
- Focusrite Saffire Pro 40
- DSI OB-6 (love child of a Prophet and an Oberheim)
- NORD Electro 3HP
- Roland XP-10
- Customized Fender-Rhodes Dyno Stage 73
