Hardware Changed, Need new key

[LupinYonder]

Hi all

I changed my hardware while DCS was installed. Now months later I am trying to do a fresh clean install but can't activate or deactivate my products as my hardware code is no longer valid.

 

Any ideas ?

I think I need to deactivate all my modules and then reactivate them with a new hardware code but I can't deactivate without the old HW code.

At this point your only option is going to be using another activation.

Are you saying you have run out of activations? Which products are you trying to activate?

Hay Sobek

I have NOT run out of activations on any modules.

Happy to reactivate on my new hardware configuration ( new hardware code ) but don't know I can.

 

Automatic Activation is Denied by server due to Invalid Hardware Code

The starforce webpage gives me a similar error

 

Deactivation is not possible due to "No license for deactivation is found"

 

Ps thanks for quick replies

[sobek]

At this point deactivation is no longer possible, you would have had to do that beforehand. Looks like you will need to use up an activation.

That would be the next thing to try.

All sorted thanks to my Squad mate 159th_Viper. Thanks for your input anyhow, was very quick!

do you mind sharing how you solved this problem? I have the same problem. I had to rebuild my machine after a motherboard failure....so I wasn't able to uninstall/deactivate before changing hardware.

 

Anyway, I would love to know how to fix this....ED has been little help...and the key reset tool on the forums did not work for my P-51 install.
