(A) Run the 'find Logic key' program which you should have under your start menu. If you don't run the programme directly from your Logic install folder. (B) If that doesn't work, try physically switching your Logic key over to the other com port (i.e. from 1 to 2 or vice versa). (C) If those still don't work, then enter 'win.ini' (get there by clicking Start then Run then entering 'systedit'; when bunch of files open up close them down until you get to the one headed 'win.ini). Go down to section headed [Logic]'. Delete there the line that says 'key=xxxx' or similarl. Try running 'Find Logic Key' programme again. (D) If that STILL doesn't work you can try disabling one of your com ports. Disabling Com Port 1 is usually the best bet. Right-click on 'My Computer'; choose 'Properties' from the pop-up menu; go to the 'Device Manager' tab; click on the + sign by where it says 'ports (COM & LPT'); click on 'Communications Port (COM 1); click on 'properties'; put a check mark in the box where it says 'disable in this hardware profile' or similar. Then reboot. And try 'Find Logic Key' again. If your PC complains bitterly, just go into safe mode and renable the port. Then ... repeat the whole procedure and disable Com Port 2 instead. Then try Find Logic Key again. If all of that doesn't work ............... . ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tom Parish" <tparish@...> To: <logic-users@egroups.com> Sent: Sunday, December 31, 2000 7:51 AM Subject: [LUG] LAW - will not recognize dongle now argh ???? > > Ok, I'm both upset and tired.
