Q. My License key does not seem to work.
Both the User Name and Registration Key must be correctly entered before the software turns itself into the registered version. See this online step by step guide for help.

Keys from V8 of BurnInTest will work in V8 of BurnInTest.
Keys from V7 of BurnInTest will work in V7 of BurnInTest.
Keys from V6 of BurnInTest will work in V6 of BurnInTest.
Keys from the 32bit version of BurnInTest will work in the 64bit edition of BurnInTest.

Keys from BurnInTest V1, V2, V3, V4, V5, V6 & V7 will not work in BurnInTest V8.0. But you can upgrade.
Keys from BurnInTest Standard edition will not work in BurnInTest Professional edition.

If you purchased BurnInTest V7 within 6 months of BurnInTest V8 being released you are entitled to a free upgrade to BurnInTest V8. You can request a new key from the BurnInTest free upgrade page.

 

Q. How many licenses do I need if I purchase the software?
You need 1 license per machine that is running the software, or has the software installed at the same time.
 
Example 1: You have a PC production line that produces 10 machines per day. You test each machine during the night. So a maximum of 10 machines are running the software at any one time, and you re-image the machine before shipping. 10 Licenses are required.
 
Example 2: You are a company that takes delivery of no more than two new machines at a time. You want to burn in both machines at the same time. 2 licenses are required, assuming you uninstall the software before putting the machine into service.

Example 3: You have 5 staff in the field repairing PC's. Each technician carries a copy of BurnInTest with them on a USB drive. 5 licenses are required assuming the software is always run from the USB drive.

 
Q. I’ve lost my registration key, how can I get it back?
