Acad Licence Verification Error

[markley]

Have had a continual problem with AutoCad 2008 & now 09 verifying the licence every day until it exceeds the number of allowed times then i have to get Autodesk to issue a new delete request or activation code. The system is an HP xw6200 workstation which i have added an additonal 150 gb SATA drive to. I have applied the sata drive hotfix from AutoDesk which worked for a week before reverting back to verifying the licence everyday. Software supplier and AutoDesk have no ideas, has anyone else experienced this problem and been able to resolve???? next step is to replace sata with an ide drive.

thanks
regards

FYI
Autodesk recommended eliminating all USB connected drives as some can cause issues with licence verification. So far this has worked !!!!!!

Thanks for posting the update. Hopefully this will help someone else who may be experiencing the same problems.

I am having the same issue Autocad Architecture 2009!...However, I am not using a SATA drive... Autodesk again has no idea or solution.

Are these network or standalone licenses? We have network licenses and Ihave two SATA hard drives in my WS, sata DVD's and a portable USB drive and have never had this issue.

I have a Macbook and a friend of mine has a Macbook Pro and we are having the same problem, the only thing I found so far is that if I change the date of my system Autocad will let me have the 7 days period again.
If someone finds a solution I will be thankful if you send it over to cyberghost2000@hotmail.com

Good Luck everyone!
