Hi there. im having exactly the same problems. tried looking through posts, cant find any similar problems,
However by saving the registry key you do not have to keep activating it every time you reinstall. Lock On v.1.1: Flaming Cliffs Activation Store Utility will do this for you. save the file to your desktop. then re install LO:MOC and LO:FC and double click on the file and windows will install the file.
let me know if you ever solved the problem, because im stumped (i would say that I'm pretty knowledgeable with computers)
