[PCB_FORUM] Re: 15.7 on Vista 32...

Hi Bill,

Thanks for that clarification.  Good news is, Allegro works on 15.7...but I
can't get PADS or DxD to work.  I may have to "downgrade" to XP to get these
three to work.

Regards,

Austin

  Yes.  It's not a problem for me.  I reboot once every couple of months.

  But...every time you reboot?

    Hi Bill,



    So, in order to run Allegro, you have to go and manually run lmgrd?

      Lmgrd is not run as a service (on my machine).  It is an executable
from the command line or gui.

      Hi Bill,



      I am able to get "lmhostid -flexid" to return the proper USB ID.  I am
able to put the USB key on another machine modify the license file to point
to that other machine, and I can bring up PCB Editor that way.  But I can't
the license "tools" on the Vista machine to work...yet.



      What do you mean by "run as administrator" with respect to a service?
It is setup for an automatic startup.  Hum.  Let me look into that...



      Thanks,



      Austin

        Whatever version comes on the Cadence CD.  I think it's 10.8.

        Also, be sure to "run as administrator" (right click) when you start
lmgrd.   The Aladdin drivers started right up.

          I used the 15.7 lmgrd.  I used the Aladdin drivers off of their
website.  No issues.

          Hi,



          Someone else did report here that they had 15.7 running fine on
Vista...and that their installation used lmgrd.  It would be good to know if
another version of lmgrd was used aside from the one that came with the
standard installation.  Perhaps you're right about the need to use a later
version of the key driver.  I hate this key stuff.



          Regards,



          Austin

            SPB 15.7 was not supported on Vista. You might try obtaining the
license server portion from the 16.0 release where Vista
            is supported. If you license via dongles, you need Vista
compatible dongle drivers which are not present in the 15.7 install.

Hi Mike,           In a standard, first time, Cadence installation, the
pcbenv        directory path is created at "C:\pcbenv. UAC allows the
Cadence installer to create the directory, but UAC will        prevent you
from changing any files in that directory.     I do install the pcbenv
underneath a subdirectory, so I should be all setthere. Regards,
