Following steps solved the problem on my system:

1) start houdini
2) click on “install NC license” and
3) IMMEDIATELY switch to another desktop
4) wait for the “license installed” dialog
5) …
6) PROFIT!

Well, I'd guess this was a server issue tho

Why thank you very much, as strange as it is that worked perfect, hail to you sir. If I were in Germany I would offer to buy you a big ass Glass of Ale but unfortunately I am here in the US so the best I can do is say thank you again…. , and thank you too Steven for the reply and effort.

Hey folks I am very new to this product and am coming over from Maya, I installed Houdini but when I try to get the licenses using the license manager or even going to the licensing site it gives me an eror “Could not generate license”, I am using the Apprentice version of the software and tried originally installing the latest version 6.5.83 and then tried uninstalling that and going back to version 6.1.208. Both do the same thing, any ideas what may be causing my problem? If I am posting this in the wrong section please point me in the right direction.

Just incase my system specs are:
Dell Latitude D800
P4 Centrino 1.6Ghz
1 Ghz DDR400 Memory
Nvidea Gforce FX5750go w/128MB ram
Windows XP Pro/SP1
Thanks in advance
