You can open the license.dat file with a text editor like notepad and modifiy it to correct problems. When you get - "flexlm -5,357" this is an error code of -5. So if you do a search for "flexlm -5" with google or altavista and read the different explainations for -5 error you might be able to solve this your self. See this link:

Also, if Pro E installed fine you do not need to reinstall just modify the license.dat file. When you start Pro E and get the error message window maximize the window and make you read it all.

Most of the software problems people have originate with licensing, the more you know the better off you will be.

P.S. Flexlm causes a thirst for Windsor Cokes!
