Sidboxman:
Any suggestions? I originally started with version 7 years ago and then upgraded to 8 and then to 11 Plus/Ultimate. My computer crashed and I'm trying to reinstall 11. I no longer have my version 7 CD, but have the upgrade CD for 8. It seems to take that okay as the prior version to install the upgrade CD for Version 11.
I enter the 10 digit code, too for the prior version (8), but when asked to put in my serial # for Version 11 it says it is invalid.
I've tried to zero and letter O and I thing, but still nothing. I'm reading it off the cd holder - right off the label.
I've cleaned the registry, etc.
Any thoughts? Does it have something to do with having the upgrade 8 and not my original 7 anymore?
Thanks

Probably - I think you needed the Full Version Serial Number/Activation Key upto S14, when the previous Version would suffice.
Anyway try this if you haven't already done-so:
1) Insert S11 Program Disk
2) Insert S8 Program Disk while holding -down the Shift key, to prevent the Initial Installer Bar, when requested to do-so by S11.
3) Enter S8 Serial Number.
4) Re-insert S11 Disk when requested to do-so
5) Enter S11 Serial number.
Upgrades read the previous Version Pixie Folder Registration Info, which might include the previous Version to that Registration info.
Anyone-else?
