Many months ago I purchased Max 2008 (legally....student version) and installed it onto 2 machines: home, and office.

I recently upgraded my home system, but now I am unable to run Max 2008.
It installs fine, but when I click the startup icon it informs me that the license has expired.
At no time during the install does it even ask for a license/serial number.

So now I’ve got this great new system.........and no Max 2008.

Is there a workaround?
Is it possible to renew this license....?

Thanks!



Thanks!
