vista ultimate media center says trial version no longer available simon 10/6/2008 10:24:01 AM Hi please help me. I have vista ultimate 64bit and have had it installed for around 6 months or so, I have used it for recording tv via hauppage vhr 4000 for all this time. BUT, when I go to watch the recorded tv now, it just say that it is a trial version and is no longer available for use ?? If I change the system date to before 2006 then all is fine and I can watch the recorded programmes. Please help..
