Thanks!

I must have missed the option where to custom install the dll. file of EZDrummer then.
How do I do that? I only could browse for the folder where the program would be installed.

Now, if I want to fix/change this do I need to un-install EZDrummer or can I just ‘over install’ it? And what about the EZX’s I have installed, can I just leave them untouched?
Would this be worth fixing/changing, would there be a benefit at all, or is it common to have the vst-plugin folder on a different partition or drive than the software itself?

Thanks,
Lars

Thanks John.

See, the thing is, my EZDrummer IS installed on the D partition of the drive. And I did use custom install to have it installed on D rather than C, but still it dropped the dll. file in Cubases’VST folder which is on C. Which I think is a bit strange?
For clarification: both Cubase AND EZDrummer are installed on the D partition, just for some reason Cubase created its VST plugins folder on the C partition, and EZDrummer dropped its dll there.
I am not sure if I made a mistake when installing Cubase, but I think I did not get any option to choose where the vst plugin folder would be located at.

Thank you John!

But my EZDrummer itself is also on the D partition, isn’t it better then to have the plugins folder also on the same partition?

I think Cubase created that VST plugin folder by default. I just thought it’s strange the plug in folder is on a different partition than the program itself.

Thanks, Scott !

That’s exactly what I was going to do!

I can also check inside each of the EZXs what version it is, right? That way I can check if I installed the update or not.

Thanks again!

Thank you very much !

Now I also have to install all the updates of all of these.
Since this can get a little confusing: could it do any damage if I install one program or update by mistake twice? Would that add unnecessary registry entries that in turn might slow down the PC?

BTW, is there any preferable order in which I install all my products or does that not make a difference at all?
I still have all the EZX to install, then DFH Superior 1, SD 2.0 as well as 3 of the SDxs.

Scott, you were right! All it took was some patience.

But like I said in my previous post, towards the end, right where it got stuck, the DVD player started sounding different, so I thought immediately the disc is not good.

I apologize!
I just ran it again and just waited it out and it installed just fine.

Thank you very much! And sorry for the false alarm…..

One more thing, though, what actually made me think the DVD is defective: right when it gets stuck, the DVD player also makes a repetitive kind of sound, as if the DVD was stuck.

Thanks, Scott!

No no error message, but it just gets stuck and the progress bar is almost at the end, just 1mm short and there it stays.
Ok, I will try again, how long should I wait?

Thanks !

I was just wondering whether I made a mistake or if Cubase just creates the vst-plugins folder by default on C.  Which would be a bit strange IMO since I got the option to choose where to install the program and I chose D there, so I think it would make the most sense to have the plugins folder on that partition as well.

My set up is very similar to yours. I also have a 2nd drive where I store all my projects and data.

So, should I try to change the location of the vst plugins folder? or would this really not make a difference?

Hi,

I installed Windows 7, 64bit,and I also just stated installing my TT products. After installing EZDrummer I tried it in Solo, and it appears I did get a new Computer ID. What do I do now?
Do I just go ahead and authorize or do I first need to remove my old authorization (with the old WinXP computer ID)?

Thanks,
Lars

EDIT: Ok, I found a fix to this: I still have a wireless network cared on my PC which was not active on my old system but it was there. Apparently in Win7 it was active/enabled, and I could not figure out how to disable it, so I removed it and voila, my computer ID was the same again as back then. 🙂

Thank you so much for this!

I will look into it when I get back home from work and post back.

I appreciate your help!!!

Thank you very much for your help.
I read through the articles you posted links to, but I can’t find the option for file sharing in the control panel.

What’s also weird is that I’m the only user of this PC so I AM the administrator, why could there be a permission conflict. This is what I don’t quite get….

But there must be something wrong with permissions indeed, since I wanted to change the stratup programs and services in msconfig and I got a message saying I did not have the administor right to do that. I was like WHAT??!?!? I AM the administor…..

EDIT: I finally found the option for file sharing, and I tried it, but it did not help. Maybe I did something wrong?

I tried all the suggestions of the MS knowledge base article, nothing helped. 🙁
