I just installed the latest version of Houdini on an xp family system sp2. Now when I boot the system I get a message that new hardware has been found. I haven't installed anything new but Houdini apprentice. I'm new to both forums and Houdini so any help will be appreciated.
Are you trying to install the Apprentice license? If yes, when you start Houdini, in the pop-up box, please click on Install Houdini Apprentice License link and Houdini should download & install the license for you automatically.
