Guitar Rig not Working

Has anyone experienced GR4 working when Sonar is first started, then after about 5 minutes it says that it' a demo and your time has run out for this demo version and gives you the option to quit or Buy it.

I have had GF4 since it came out. It's a fully registered product. In fact when the vst says it's a demo I can go to the stand alone, start it up and see that the stand alone says it's "Full License"

Any help or advise would be appreciated.

    Go to NI service centre and see what it says there.

    Check you VST scan paths, are ther multiple occurances of Guitar Rig?

    In case you have installed the version of GR (3 LE) that came with SONAR , have you registered it? I guess it's possible that it's causing trouble (if unregistered) even when you use the version 4 you've bought.

    SONAR PE 8.5.3, Asus P5B, 2,4 Ghz Dual Core, 4 Gb RAM, GF 7300, EMU 1820, Bluetube Pre  -  Kontakt4, Ozone, Addictive Drums, PSP Mixpack2, Melda Creative Pack, Melodyne Plugin etc.
    The benefit of being a middle aged amateur is the low number of years of frustration ahead of you.

    @ Glyn. Yes I went to service center. It says it's activated. I never thought of multiple vst's.

    @ Kalle. Yes I think I did register 3LE because it works. In fact I had GR3 first then got GR4 when it came out. Both were still on my system when I installed X1.

    The Serial number that Service Center shows as active is my GR4 number.

    Thanks to both of you for the advise. I will check this out. This maybe the problem.

    I haven't had the issue in Guitar Rig (I do own the latest version), but had something similar in Amplitube 3. 

    To resolve it, I just had to "Run as Administrator".

    Thanks for the suggestion Ozz, but I'm running it on XP!!

    I think I might have solved the problem. What seems to have happened is that when I installed X1 I must have registered GR3LE. Now this is on a PC not connected to the internet. I have to jump through some hoops to get it activated. So it wasn't by accident! IK,IAADA!

    Anyway, the suggestions from Glyn and Kalle got me to look at Service Center again. I found that GR3LE had the vst activated but GR4 did not. So what I did was go to my vst folder, renamed GR3 dll, and rescaned plugins and it's working as of now.
