View Full Version : Emulator: Working - Protected Software: Very Slow!

Hasp HL Time
OS: WinXP Pro & WinVista 32bit (emulator/protected SW runs similarly on both)
Emu: Multikey v18.0.3
Dumper: H5DMP
Converter: UniDmp2Reg v1.1b5 PB (vUSB Hasp HL scheme)

Reg file is set up to run with multikey.


Protected software is running with emu. However, the SW runs slow. Actually, it's painfully slow - not practical at all. Sometimes, I receive errors due to all of the delays. The program seems to get slower the longer I run it and mess around with it. If I close it and reopen it again, it seems to return to its original operating speed (still slow, however). If I open my task manager while running the SW, I can look at the applications tab and depending on what I am doing (with the protected software), I can see that the program sometimes toggles between 'running' and 'not responding' under the status column (in the task manager).

Additional notes: SW is also running with LMTOOLS/FlexLM.

Also, although my hasp is HASP HL Time, when I plug it in, most of the time, Hasp HL key doesn't even install. And the SW that I run performs just fine with only these two items installed:

1. Aladdin usb key
2. Aladdin hasp key
(no Aladdin hasp hl key is installed. Sometimes it will install, but my program runs with or without it -- i.e. not needed).

I have no HL_ENCRYPT/HL_DECRYPT listings in my toro log file. I was only able to get toro monitor to run once - even then, I don't know that it ran properly. (My reg file has no Q/A, E/D Tables, yet the protected SW still runs - slowly, however).

I was also able to emulate hasp and run protected SW with Chingachguk & Denger2k Emulator 0.15.4 (the protected SW runs slowly with this emulator as well).

Thanks.

M@crovision is now using Alladin versus Sentinal Dongles your hasp emulator may not be buying you anything more than a few patches and a properly formatted license - with the right patch you can change almost anything in the license.

Thanks for the reply, SiGiNT.

I have a legitimate license file - as I own the software and the hasp. Everything is legitimate. I am simply looking to emulate the dongle in the case that something were to happen to it and I needed an immediate/emergency fix. Also, I enjoy the challenge and the learning aspect.

I am a noob, however. And at this point, I have run out of ideas.

Thanks.

Emulating a Flex Alladin dongle is not as simple as the old parallel port Sentinel dongle, the old guys were simply a unique number to tie your HOSTID to, the Aladdin guys actually do some simple communication but that would not be easier to emulate than having a patcher ready - if your license is XML then that would complicate matters a bit.

Sorry for not following up. This problem was resolved after discovering a bug in Mkey. This was remedied by way of SATARON'S TIME SET application.

Thank you.
