What do you mean? Tuning license? Or?
All Tuning license info is stored in FlashScan...Not on computer...

Installed Efi to new computer and it says the USB drivers have not be installed? I hooked the V2 up and display is not there? It works on my other laptop just not the new one?

To load drivers:
- Connect FlashScan to your laptop.
- Right-click on the ‘My Computer’ icon and select the ‘Manage’ option’.
- In the left hand tree select ‘Device Manager’.
- If the drivers are loaded you should see a device with ‘FlashScan’ in the name under the ‘Universal Serial Bus controllers’ section. If not it will be listed as an ‘Unknown Device’.
- If it is shown as ‘Unknown Device’ right-click on the ‘Unknown Device’ and select the ‘Update Driver Software’ option. The drivers are located in the ‘C:\Program Files\EFILive\Drivers\EFILive\Win-2K-XP-Vista’ folder, so choose
the ‘Browse my computer’ or advanced options and select this location to search. Don't go another level into the 'i368' or 'amd64' folders.

I would load the disk but this new computer doesn't have it. I do have a flash drive and have save Efi from that. Can someone tell me what to pull off of that and where to install?

You actually dont want to load the disk, its bound to be old software...

If you have downloaded the latest versions (7.5.6 build 106 and 8.1.2 build 86) then all you need to do is install the drivers using the Device Manager (since Windows didnt do it for you automatically). You dont need anything but tune files from your other PC, except maybe your license.txt file if you do not want to reenter your license information into you new computer.

There should be an "Unknown Device" under your Universal Serial Bus controllers, right click and select Update Driver. If not then try another USB port, preferably on a different hub (so other side of the laptop, or the front vs rear on a desktop).

The drivers are placed in C:\Program Files\EFILive\Drivers after the software is installed
or download them from the link in my sig.

Demo Message goes away when you enter the data from the blue registration card into the fields presented when you choose the 'Help->Register EFILive' menu option in the Scan or Tune tools.
