Hi tzuk,

One of my laptop has two graphic cards build into it from the manufacturer. It has both the discrete graphic card and the graphic card built on the motherboard. The switching is done manually on demand or when the power plug is inserted/taken out.

I saw this morning the laptop demanding to be activated again, which is less than 90 days. I purchased Sandboxie about a month ago. So I was surprised it asked for reactivating in such short period. It also gave me the option to be done silently in future, which I checked.

BTW, lots of the new laptops on the market these days have two graphic cards.

What seems to have worked for me is to make sure that both graphics cards are visible in the device manager before installing sandboxie. Fortunately, the laptop that I use allows me to choose which graphics card to use, and hotswap them while windows is active.

Although a few things I noted:

1. While uninstalling 3.46 and installing 3.48, Sandboxie appeared to remember the key that I used and I didn't have to re-enter the old style key. I'm not sure if this made an impact on the activation process.

So far I've gone nearly 3 days without having to reactivate - a new record. I've been attempting to restart the computer every day or so, and switching between graphics cards constantly.
