Problem loading vA without Halion Sonic USB licence

[harcon01]

I have Halion Sonic loaded as a VST and whilst I have the the elicence USB plugged in to my laptop there are no problems loading vArranger. However if I travel and forget the  elicence USB, when I try to load varranger a message appears to prompt for inserting the USB. I select "cancel" on the message but then varranger just hangs and I cannot get the program to load.

What can I do if I don't have the  elicence USB and I want to use varranger?

Just look if there is no hidden messages under the black screen to click OK on it. Press the windows key and right click on Task Manager, to see the the task bar.

If it is not working, I will try it too

Dan, thanks for your fast response, I have looked for any hidden messages but could not find any . However when I opened task manager it showed Halion Sonic as an application "running", by ending the Task vAranger continued to load. Problem solved, thanks.
