Subject:Z3ta+ no longer shows up in Acid Studio

Hi all, I have Acid Music Studio 6.0 as well as CakeWalk's (rcgAudio) Z3ta+

Funny thing is that when I had the demo of Z3ta+ it would show up fine in Acid's list of VST Instruments (that is, instruments to be available as soft synths). But now that I went out and purchased the full product it no longer shows up there.

I know the path is correct since all the other soft synths in my C:\Program Files\Vstplugins\ folder are showing up just fine....'but not Z3ta+

Mind you, it DOES show up under VST Effects.

Anybody have any idea what might be wrong? I've already reinstalled Z3ta but to no avail.

Please note also: my second computer still has the demo installed and all is fine there. I'm reluctanct to upgrade to the full version of ZETA until I've sorted this on this first computer.

help?

After having spent the bulk of a day on this problem I think I'm half way to my solution.

After reinstalling these software over and over again I came to realise that perhaps they weren't being completely removed each preceding instance.

So, finally I headed into the registry to seek out any remnants of ZETA and Acid Studio and then I removed them after first using Ctrl Panel to remove them. After all this, I was finally able to get it all working on ONE PC. But am having slight troubles with installing Acid Studio on the second machine. It's all really weird. Obviously I haven't been able to truly remove all remants of a prior installation there. ugggghhhh
