Blank Installation manager
Blank Installation manager
(OP)
I am trying to install SW 2013 and all I get is a blank installation manager. It worked fine until I replaced my hard drive and reinstalled Windows 7, now I can't install SW which means I cannot work.
Please help.
Daniel.

Have you switched the OS from X32 to X64?

RE: Blank Installation manager
With all due respect, what makes you think this is a common problem? A search of this forum yields little relating to your problem.
If your hard drive failed then you are hopefully making a clean installation onto a new hard drive. If you are doing this from a legitimate DVD then you should be having no problems.
The most plausible issue is the version of SWX2013 for your OS, 32 or 64-bit, as CBL suggested. The SWX disks are marked with their bit version.
Did your reinstallation Windows 7 have any problems?

As far as I know, that shouldn't be affecting the installation of SW though.
See if this helps...

I am using the original DVD and I use the 32 bit version the same for Windows 7, didn't have any problems installing that.
CorBlimey, I have tried that link in my efforts to scan the Internet for the answer but it didn't help.
Any further suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers Daniel.

You need to contact your VAR. They will send you a new license file.
A new Windows install will need it.
Any search for a problem will find a lot of results for that problem. It doesn't mean it's a common problem.
