Frost - -I just spoke with the engineers -- and this is what Jon suggested:

I have seen something like this twice before: The un-install did not go smoothly (whether they knew it or not) and the database did not get replaced (which holds all of the settings / data / and current version number string). Once this happened, there was a bunch of registry crap that got messed up as well.

Easy way to fix it - Uninstall all old versions - Go to C:\Program Files\Castle Creations\ and remove the whole Castle Link directory - Now reinstall, but do it in a different location, such as C:\Program Files\Castle Creations\Castle Link2\, this basically bypasses any badness in the registry.

If that does not take care of it, we can work with him to figure out what exactly is happening.


Let me know if that helps!

Pdelcast, thank you so much for the advice. It works now

Prior to that, I actually tried to remove all Castle-Link entries in Windows registry, including deletion of the oem29.inf, cygf32.sys, cyglib.sys, etc but somehow it didn't work. There seem to be some duplicate copies of the driver messed up somewhere in the registry database / backup, but access is denied.

So I decided to install on a different directory instead, and then it works.

I hope the engineers can solve this problem in the next Castle-Link release (and if possible clear up the previous mess left over in the registry).

Thanks.
