My system is Windows7 64 bit Professional. I have installed Selectserver Gateway 8.11.7.88 and connected successfully to the Bentley server with my activation key. Mstn 8.5.2.70 can launch and get a license. If I have running any other application, like outlook or PDF reader, then launch Mstn 8.5.2.70 it will freeze at the splash screen, seemingly unable to get a license. Any ideas?
The current release of SELECTserver (Gateway) is v08.11.07.111... have you tried using that instead? Also, are you using the 32-bit or 64-bit version of the Gateway?
BTW, you are aware that MicroStation V8 2004 Edition is not officially certified for use on Windows 7, correct? Are you running any other "layered applications", or just MicroStation?
I was NOT aware that 2004 edition was not certified for Win7. It has been working fine on all other computers I have setup this way, but thank you for pointing that out. At this point we are using MicroStation without verticals, and with some custom in-house tools.
