I've rcvd mixed info from customer service; should this be overinstalled (as a patch) or as a clean install?

Thanks.

Hello,
It depends, Sometimes it works fine installing over top of the existing program, but if you have problems, then a clean install will most of the time fix the problems.

See ya, Rockit

Rockitglider,

Thanks for the reply. Sounds like I take my chances.

I hope an SF person will chime in on this as well.

It's no big thing, it doesn't change your settings or anything like that. I did the patch method.

See ya, Rockit

Ok, now I can't use 'Edit in Sound Forge'.

Oddly this only happens with some files I downloaded fromn 'Get Media'(Spanishguitar).

Other files seem to work so far.

When I try it launches my SoundForge5dXP, but I just get an upgrade promo.

Any ideas as to what's causing this?
