Hi Gordon,
If moving a PCI card from one slot to another results in it
being necessary to re-activate, then this is something
Freedom Scientific must be made aware of. [Tristram - are
you listening?] Clearly the process is too sensitive. I'm
even a little surprised at the report of a memory upgrade
requiring this.
As regards loosing installs, I doubt you will get an
arguement here. My suggestion would be to simply drop S&S
and line, explaining the situation, and ask them to confirm
that you only have x machine(s) activated.
George.

Hi Can anyone help me understand what's going on.
Tristram at SS has been very helpful when I've had
problems with this and reset my activations. However again
recently I needed to change the configuration
of one of my machines and swapped around the PCI
cards. Lo and behold when I rebooted I needed to reactivate.
Why is this necessary when all I did was
change the cards around - I did so to make room for
a new Audigy. This was the only new card. Everything else is
the same.
Does this mean that any time any changes take place
we will need to reactivate? Also if I do reactivate do I
lose one of my 3 activations or is it covered
by the machine number I originally had and was
given?
It seems to me that even Windows XP is not so
sensitive. Things will be OK if I can reactivate without
losing one of my 3 activations but if not, when changes
take place I can imagine that our activation history
may be queried by SS or FS.
I may have misunderstood the activation process - I
look forward to being corrected.
