NILM6 Error Message

[JM84]

Hello, just installed Circuit Design 10.0.1 Student Evaluation Version, and upon startup, I received this error message:

"Due to system clock rollback on your computer, expiring licenses cannot be checked out from this computer. (NILM6)"

Additional Information:

Platform - Windows XP Home Edition (Service Pack 2)

is this the first time you installed it?

[JM84]

Yes, this was the first I've ever installed this program.

and you clock is in proper sync? If you push the clock forward and roll it back, it checks the span of the trial time in both directions to see if the limitations are being manupulated.

I'm aware of that "trick" with evaluation software. (Pushing it forward, then rolling it back)  But I never really adjust the clock at all, except for the occassional re-sync with windows.com.  Just to be sure this wasn't the problem though, here's what I did.

Actions Taken:

Uninstalled Circuit Design 10.0.1

Synched clock with windows.com

Reinstalled Circuit Design 10.0.1

I still received the same error message.

I'm betting that is the problem right there, the re-sync. You'll have to contact NI directly to get this resolved, they will not put that info on a public forum to fix this issue.

Send them an email, and they'll most likely get you on your way.

Ok, that's understandable.  Well thank you, but seeing how I will definately need this software, I just purchased it instead.

Thank You.

well I guess that solves your problem and now you have full NI support....:)

I'm not rep or anything, just an user like yourself.

Good luck
