we dont support W8 yet
any chance you can use XP?

 

[cometangel]

maybe but i better keep to any potential rules of the forum

 

[Tony]

if you choose XP install this
Download: .NET Framework 3.5 Service pack 1 - Microsoft Download Center - Download Details

and you should be ok

 

[cometangel]

yep, thx for the easy link now i just got to get the drivers sorted out and get WoW to an external hdd and i will post the results when im done

 

[cometangel]

there is an issue with my license i think, reinstalled XP and fixed it, same issue, formating and installing windows 7, same issue... i bought it a day ago and my license isnt working, as it just did exactly after purchase

 

[Tony]

there is a preview version out,not the final one

 

[cometangel]

consumer preview has been out for a good month or two and is free to download on microsofts homepage with a one year license, its not yet finished for retail sales yet, but it works very well, better than windows 7 of own experience

 

[Tony]

your license works as it should,something is wrong with the setup

 

[cometangel]

hmm... figured it out now... but i cant get to fixing the problem, in add and remove windows features .net 3.5.1 is not ticked, ticking it makes a long load then prompts me to restart, restarted and back to an unticked .net 3.5.1 -.-... searched forums and microsoft knowledgebase and no solution... updating w7 atm then i will try some theories and i will post the results and my way of fixing it, if anyone else should have the problem in the future

 

[Tony]

thtas exactly is the problem,your net framework is disabled

 

[cometangel]

yes, i came somewhere now, but backwards, now the proccess runs but the gui is never initialized

 

[Tony]

tried a new Hb installation from scratch?

 

[cometangel]

yep, but i solved it now, works like a charm.
what i did was create another user with admin and UAC disabled
logged onto the new user then go to add or remove windows features in programs and features at the control panel
then i activated .NET framework 3.5.1 in the list
when prompted restart your computer and honorbuddy will now work with all users of that OS
NOTE: if you can activate net framwork 3.5.1 from you main user account you can skip the part to create a new one

 

[Tony]

Great,i am glad you are ok
