    Have License key; cannot access Advanced edition

    Hello

    Have a PCMark 7 cd and license key from my team member. After installing the software from the CD; not able to load/input the license key to register the advanced mode account.

    Does PCMark 7 work on multiple PC's if installed from same CD. Is there limitation to number of instances we can create using the same CD.

    Please let me know. By running only benchmark test with limited flexibility settings; missing on several features.

    The installer can be installed as many times as you want - it is the same for free Basic edition and Advanced edition.
    However, Advanced and Professional Edition license keys are tied to 3dmark.com accounts. You cannot re-use a key for another account once it has been used and tied to an account.

    The same user can install the benchmark using the same key on as many PCs as he wants for benchmarking different systems as long as the software is not used simultaneously on multiple systems but the key cannot be tied to additional 3dmark.com accounts and the license is per-user. All results would have to be uploaded to the same 3dmark.com online account.

    Also note that Advanced Edition is for private use; by licensing terms, you need Professional Edition for commercial use. Both these editions are individual licenses, one key / 3dmark.com account for one user. Multiple users require multiple licenses.

    For large scale (corporate) use we have other licensing options but for those you need to contact our sales staff (sales [at] futuremark.com)

    Thanks for responding back to me.

    We will use one email account to submit the results. This is for trial use; once we are satisfied with the tool; should be ordering a corporate license.

    Reg the error i received: Key should be entered with dashes in between. This solved my issue.

    Ah, that was the cause for the error. Yes, the key needs to be entered as shown (including dashes).
