An issue registering FSUIPC 3.90 with MD-11

[Nightflier101BL]

Hello everyone. I've recently encountered a problem trying to run the PMDG MD-11 when I register my copy of FSUIPC. I'm getting an error message telling me that my version is too old which is not. Now I've read just about every single posting everywhere about the different fixes and checking for duplicates and whatnot. I've even gone to the extremes and tried re-installing the airplane both before and after installing FSUIPC, and eventually even tried re-installing the entire simulator. I've started a thread over in the PMDG forums linked here http://forums1.avsim.net/index.php?showtopic=258230 Here, I've been keeping updates on all my trial and error troubles.

I've even purchased another registration for FSUIPC thinking that I might have an outdated key, but that did not work (maybe I can get refunded for that one? - I still have all my information on both purchases).

I am completely at a loss at this point as to what my problem could be. If it means anything, I'm running FS9 on Windows XP Pro 64 bit. I've recently built a new computer and the last build, I was running both programs just fine which was on a 32 bit OS of the same.

If it worked before you registered, but not after, then there's only two possible explanations:

Either (a) your system date, the one Windows knows, it set to BEFORE the date you purchased the registration, making it look invalid, OR

(b) the registration key you are trying to use is, indeed, a forgery, an illegal one made by a pirate key generator.

Hopefully you are a legitimate user who has merely forgotten to set his system date (and maybe time?) correctly?

I'm positively a legitimate user. I purchased the "second" key just a couple of days ago from simmarket. I checked the BIOS to see if the time and date were set correctly which they were, but the time and date that you see in the bottom right corner of the desktop was way off-back to 2004. Let me give it another whirl and see if that helped.

PS - Is it possible to get a refund for that second key I bought?

I shouldn't think so, but you have to ask SimMarket. I have nothing to do with that part. I only do development and tech support.

Well, that solved my problem! It was the time on the desktop. Jeez, after all the stuff I went through.

Thank you for your help!
