Support at presonus.

Yep - tried.
 
They do really not have the best support - my ticket is still "in process" (that usually means that they have not opened it yet... ) after 6 days.
 
Hopefully they will help at last.
 
Does anyone know how I can check in the registry if the dll have been registered? And maybe"deregister" it?

They have answered now, and sent me a new 64bit .dll file.

Same error.

Anyone know how to check in Windows registry if this have been registered, or how to "unregister" it?
I suspect there is a problem with the registry or something?

this is an access denied error:

So, launch the command prompt window with a right click, "Run as administrator".

And then register

Thanks, will try again tonight.

But, as far as I can remember, when I tried this there was not an alternative when I right clicked.
Can this be because of the UAC or that I only have one account and that is Administrator?

Tis about vista but all the stuff sorta pertains.

Vista and 7 do not allow the administrator account to be used by default. Always has to have a "real" user.

And, make UAC always off.

hmmm...

I've created a new account now, (standard) but the only account before was "DAW" and that was admin.

Still not possible to "Run as administrator" at the command run.exe
Cmd I can run as administrator.
Tried both with UAC on and off.

This is the error message, I think it is new now:

Thank you for your effort to help.
 
Yes it was available - the cmd command I could run as administrator.
both in the admin account and my standard it was available.
 
but not "run".
 
Either way, I have solved the problem.
 
After this, I uninstalled everything which was related to .NET and Visual C, and tried to reinstall them.
Not helping, so I tried to repair my Win7 install (with the Win7 dvd)
No luck.
 
So I formatted the system drive and installed Win7 again.
working perfect :)
 
Pretty shure it has something to do with .NET - there was some files missing from system32 or something but could not locate which.
I googled to find several others with the same error message, all .NET related. (different programs, flight simulator, ATI cards etc)

After my latest reinstall (I changed my OS disk to a SSD and started over again) I have a new problem with my Faderport. It is recognized in the Surfaces menu, I have also manually registered it. (get success message also)
As you can see, the Faderport lists as "Faderport -1" and also the midi in/out is not saved.
I can set the Faderport as midi in/out. (but is is blank when I go in again)
I am starting Sonar as administrator. The Faderport is sending midi messages.
 
Anyone know why this is happening? And what to try?
