Cubase and windows XP

[Babycham]

I just recieved a New computer with Windows XP home edition. I have used Cubase 5/32 on my other computer which is windows 98, and it works fine. I install cubase on my New computer whichs is windows XP home, the program installs, but when ever I try to run cubase, I get like a error message, can anyone help me out???????

Did you pull the dongle off of the 98 machine and put it on the XP machine?

Yeah, what's a dongle? I have gotten that message when I tried to update past R4. So my current setup is R4. I am currently downloading the new 5.1. I hope it works. By the way, let me know how XP works. I really would like to upgrade if it is worthwhile! Good luck!

???where are you getting 5.1? its not out, unless your getting a public beta. i have cubase 5 vst/32 R6 , i don't have any problems running it under WinXpPro.

Basically he is saying that he has the Paradox hacked version.

To get cubase worked on XP you need revision 6.... sorry

So is the dongle that silly little thing that connects to your printer port?
