I need help. how do install this cursed dongle crap :)

[Mackius]

Okay so my dealer sent me the cd and the dongle. I installed the mastercam, then plugged my dongle in the parrallel port. Btw i have winxp, so i went to launch mastercam and it says 'hasp not found'. hmm, so i then restart the computer and enable parrallel port in bios, went back into winxp and still it refused to start.

 

what am i doing wrong here. btw, i would call the dealer for assistance but its after 5here and everyones gone home.

Don't worry. All you need to do is update your HASP (the dongle) drivers. The drivers that ship on the Mastercam 8 CD do not support Windows XP. Download the latest drivers that do support Windows XP from here:

Go to this site on emasteram and download the hdd32.zip file.

Make sure you are logged in as admin. Unzip the file and run hdd32.exe

 

Good luck
