Hi there,

Welcome to the forum. Are you still unable to run Houdini? Can you post more information about your OS and hardware? Can you run other programs like the License Administrator and Image Viewer, for example? Did you perform any updates to your machine prior to the issue?

Cheers!

Here is the error I recieved…

The LIBUI.DLL file is linked to missing export KERNEL32.DLLGetConsoleWindow.

C\Program Files\Side Effects Software\Houdini 9.1.179\bin\hmaster.exe
A device attached to the system is not functioning.

Which version of Windows are you running? 9.1 is fairly old and probably guarenteed to not work on Windows Vista. I would suggest trying out the latest Houdini 9.5 daily build. Even then, I don't think Houdini will run on Vista 32-bit unless you turn off UAC.
