Very odd. I've only personally had this problem in XP10, and it was solved with the NVidia driver update + some fixes from Supnik which was later released in a new version of 10. We may have to wait for Philipp to help diagnose this one. He's intermittently away for the week, but he'll get to it when he can. Your log, your activation info on this end, and your description of what's happening when you load the CRJ with blank screens from the start all point to an issue that is NOT activation related. I'm not sure if there are some pieces of old drivers that should be deleted that aren't actually getting so, or what. Very odd indeed.
