Well thanks to NT CAD CAM I seem to have sorted my installation woes. Just for your reference, and this is my mistake really, but be careful with the new serial number stuff. I'd not had to input the serial number for some time, so when I was asked for it I logged into Solidworks site under the my-products thing and taken what I assumed to be the Serial for my install. We only have two seats here, and for some reason we'd both used the same serial number - what's more we could both run SW with not too many problems. The conflict was only flagged as SW Photoworks stopped working in 2006, but was working fine in 2007. Now I've got the serial numbers correct and I'm cooking on gas again! Thanks to those who gave help and advice - watch the new serial number malarky, they dont write it on the box anymore! LB
