Did you install from the CD-based installation or the web download?

The web download registration should work but we are working through some issues with our CD-based registration. For the CD-based registration, registration is not mandatory so you should still be able to use the IDE.

Hi,

I am having the same problem. I downloaded the ISO file and created the CD, installed the program without any problems, but when trying to register the product I get to the Live ID login page and enter the relevant details, but whem trying to load the next page I get this message (displayed in the browser):

Unknown Error

An unknown error occurred while processing your request. This is most likely due to a connection failure. Please try again.

I have tried repeating the process at different times, even with FireFox, but same results.

I am using IE7 on Vista Premium.

Any help would be appreciated.

Kind regards

Michael
