Sound Forge issues

Hi folks,
I was wondering something. I know that Sony offers trials for all of their products. My question is though, how on earth do you get the trial of sound forge to work? I downloaded the installer offered by Sony, I clicked run trial, and still I get the box asking for my registration information and nonexistent serial number. any suggestions/explanations? And I am running Windows 7 ultimate and pro.

Oh ... never mind. I just checked yesterday, and I think I've figured it out. It won't load due to Sony's stupid rules that trials require qritten permission from the company. It'd be really nice if they had made that clear! Why the heck don't they make that explicit? I mean, that could cause some real trouble if they aren't careful.

Chromebuster,
You should be able to load and run a trial version of Sound Forge Pro 10.
This is how I got it working.

1. Went to the download page and downloaded the English version.
2. Ran the installer.
3. Opened Sound Forge 10.
4. A screen came up asking if I had a serial or if I wanted to run the trial. I picked trial (the first option).
5. It then asked me to register. I selected over the internet and then put in my details and pressed finish.
6. Sound Forge 10 then loaded.

If these don't work I will investigate more. Also, may I ask where you found the bit about requiring written permission?

Thanks,
Taomech

Hi,
Sorry about the delay, but thanks a million! I'll have to try that. And I'll tell you exactly where I heard that. I was reading the read me file under the start menu group. The part about written permission was listed at the bottom under the section that says demos.
