The HostIDs found on this computer do not match the HostIDS found in the license file. When using Mobile Compute (Node-locked) licensing, PADS products must be able to match a HostID from this computer (or a hardware key) to a HostID in the license file.
If you have a hardware key for licensing and it is not attached, this may not present a problem provided the key is attached when you run PADS products.
If you have your hardware key attached, and you skipped the prompt to load hardware key drivers, click Cancel and re-do the Mobile Compute (Node-locked) license installation so that you can allow the drivers to be installed.
If you do not have a hardware key and licenses are locked to an Ethernet address, check to make sure you are installing PADS (and the license file) on the correct machine. Contact your local Mentor Sales Office if you think your license was generated incorrectly.
The hardware key drivers can also be installed and tested outside of the PADS installation from the following Start menu location: .
