Hi All,
It's been awhile since I've been on this list. Was very active in the
late 90's.
I wonder if someone can help me...
Background: I've used TS 4.0 with Win98 and a 233 mhz computer since
1998. I've had 4.0 since the beginning. Been trading since 1978 and have
day traded the S&P 500 exclusively since '92. I just bought a new P3
2.4ghz computer with XP Home.
The problem is getting 4.0 to see the security block with XP. I've
tried all of the procedures from the Omega "Knowledgebase" that has a
three page document explaining how to modify the files for XP/4.0, etc.
But
after carefully following its procedure I still get "Security block
missing". I ran the dongle speed test they suggest and see "activator
found", and get settings that said, Set SSI_ACT=3,2,80. I entered
those and all the other files asked several times. Still NG. The
computer appears to "see" the dongle, but TS 4.0 does not. [I paid
$1,500 for TS 4.0 and the dongle matches the CD]
I even tried using the old "BaseDRV, Safecoop" etc, crack files that
successfully eliminated the dongle on my Win 98/ 233 mhz machine, but
still the same, "security block missing".
Is anyone having luck getting their machine to run 4.0 with XP, or is
this a hopeless cause? If not, what would you suggest? Maybe a new crack
for XP?
I could stay with the old machine, but was hoping to use the new one.
Help!
