Please do not make 2 identical threads.
Please update to the latest beta - http://www.holdemmanager.com/downloads/HmBetaUpdate.exe
Under Vista and Windows 7 make sure UAC is disabled http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmmain.aspx?faqid=73 or holdemmanager.exe, hmhud.exe, and dbcontrolpanel.exe are started as administrator. Run the windows explorer and navigate to your Holdemmanager installation directory. Right click the dbcontrolpanel.exe, holdemmanager.exe, and the hmhud.exe executable and select "Run as admin" from the popup menu.
Add exceptions to the windows firewall, even if it is off. If you have a 3rd party firewall, do the equivalent or uninstall it temporarily - http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=171
If those basics dont help, try these steps.
First try to delete the \postgresql\8.x\data\postmaster.pid file, if you see it, and reboot.
If no help, try this:
Start > Programs > PostgreSQL > 8.x > Stop Service
Start > Programs > PostgreSQL > 8.x > Start Service
Add exceptions to the windows firewall, even if it is off. If you have a 3rd party firewall, do the equivalent or uninstall it temporarily - http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=171
Please try following all of these FAQs, step by step:
1) http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=34
2) reinstall the same version of postgresql, using the same \data folder - http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=177
3) http://www.holdemmanager.net/forum/showthread.php?t=8261
If that doesn't help you will probably have to reinstall PostgreSQL completely and reimport your hands.

Hi and thanks,
I went through the process above, created a new 8.4 database, and exported and imported the hands. I decided to go ahead and purchase the program, did so, received a serial number, but when I go to add it (pasted straight from computer) it tells me the serial number is not valid or has not yet been used.
How do I get around this?

You get this messages during the activation process?
Which operating system?
Are you running holdemmanager.exe, hmhud.exe and dbcontrolpanel.exe as administrator?
