You must first install the software per the instructions.  You don't put the USB dongle in, until you have installed the software and your password.   Your USB dongle is your security for your password.  The USB dongle is the LAST thing you install.

Go to start on your computer, > My computer, and click the cd/ dvd drive and install it..  If the dvd doesn't work then contact  SAI tech support.  It's on your paperwork..  Make sure your cd/dvd drive works and the dvd is clean and no scratches.  Shouldn't have any if new. 

 

If you want support from SAI, make sure you register your software with SAI.

Does it have the Green Flexi 10 label on it?    You can contact SAI on the weekends,  they have great tech support.  Wash the disc and wipe dry.. does it look scratched up?   SAI may be able to give you a downoad link, it you provide your user ID..

I have gotten email support on the weekends.  They are world wide.    Not much any one else can do without the software installed..  If you don't want it, contact your seller and tell them it doesn't work,  Have you tried seeing if the disc will work in  another computer?  such as a friend?.

I bought Flexi starter 10 off ebay and I bet from the same seller a couple weeks ago and it installed no problems It is barebones hence the name starter but what it does it does well.

He listed as used but it looked new when I got it. At that price there's only 1 that I saw selling on ebay.

He can't get the disc to run...from what I understand.   So I told him to contact SAI for a download link.   They sent me a link before, Which I have saved.  But it is not for what he has...

sounds like they don't know how to open the files on the disc to look  . . . this could need popcorn before the year is over if that is the case

Are you saying that your computer didn't even recognize that there was a disc in there, or it just sat there with no 'autorun' happening?
