Windows 8.1 can't install flexID driver - FIXED

RobTgul

Hi there, 

 

I hope you can help. I have installed the windows 8 licence manager, this seems to install ok. However at the end of the install a pop up window appears which says the FLEXID 9 Drivers need to be installed. I run the app and install the drivers, restart the computer as prompted but they still haven't installed. 

I can see the HASP HL 3.25 in my device manager, this also states that there is no driver installed. 

 This is for ORCAD 16.6, which ran ok on straight windows 8 before a format and upgrade to windows 8.1. Its driving me mad. 

 

Thanks in advance 

 

Rob,

     Some more info, hopfully it will help to diagnose the issue. Once I have supposedly installed the FLEXID 9 drivers (I only install 9 and not 10) the licence server tool fails due to the following reasons:

    - Unable to start Cadence License Server with the new license file 'C:\Cadence\LicenseManager\license.dat'.'
      Please check the license log file 'C:\Cadence\LicenseManager\debug.log' for details.

    - Failed to install the FLEXid dongle driver.

    - Failed to update your CDS_LIC_FILE license path with the new license server setting '5280@RobsDesk'.

     

     

    Here is a copy of the log:
