Ok.. I realise this is kind of late to ask this but.. maybe someone
here can help me.
I own Logic Audio Platinum v4.0 w/ Serial dongle. (DB9)
I used it back a few years (stopped playing with music around late
2000) and this was on Win98. I'm not using Windows 2000 Pro and I'm
getting back into music. A lot as changed.. Sigh
Well, my problem is this. My LAP CD & floppy wont install on Windows
2000. Says I need atleast win95.. Lol
I figured how to fool the setup into thinking it was on Win98.. and
it installs partly, before crashing my system near the end. I tried
to install the Update thinking maybe it would have enough installed
but.. No go. I have Logic Audio Install CD Volume 5 btw.. I found in
a forum on a website that I might be needing Logic Audio Install CD
Vol 13. Can anyone confirm this? Also.. I'm not sure if I can still
get this CD from emagic.. since they dont support PC users anymore. :(
If not.. Does anyone here have this CD? ..I'm not suggesting anything
illegal here.. but if Apple wont sell me the update CD.. I have to
find it somewhere else no don't I? I wouldn't be able to do anything
without my Serial Dongle anyhow so.. please don't flame me for trying.
I'll try to give Emagic in the US a call this week.. see if they can
still help me. I hope it wont transfer me to an APPLE support line.

Logic did not install under win 2000/xp up until version 4.8.1, which
was made available at a (smallish) cost on a CD from Emagic at the
time.

It won't hurt to contact Emagic and ask for this CD. I am not aware
of any official announcement from them that all PC support is
dropped, although it is probably safe to assume that they aren't
queuing up to support PC users anymore. In any case, if you want to
work with Logic 4 under WIn 2000, you need 4.8.1
HTH, kind regards

I called them friday, and they told me they might still have few
copies left. I was transfered to a voice mail to leave my info. They
have not gotten back to me yet. I called today.. they were closed
for "meetings". Man... They work 10-4 Mon-Fri.. and close for
meetings?? I want to work there! LOL
If they don't have a copy of the CD, I hope they can burn me a copy..
lol
