The registration code is a simple entry in the registry, entered via a .reg
file, and using regedit->Import.  There are no issues that I can see (but I may
not see everything) with the registry entry itself.  As FL starts a popup
window appears with the following message:

***
You appear to be a registered user,
but your registration code is not valid anymore.
You will now be taken to the "My FL Studio" web page
where you can get your new registration code.
***

There are a couple of things worth noting about this message, 1) FL knows that
the registry entry is there, and 2) FL implies that there is an issue with
*time*.  Beta versions of FL are almost always time limited, and require new
reg codes to be obtained in order to use the latest beta software, however this
is *not* a beta version of the program, Ver 8.0, and as far as I know there are
no time limits on this official full release (demo) version.  Time should not
be the issue, but time determination may in fact still be part of the problem
if the misread and/or mis-decrypted code(s) causes FL to think there is a time
limit present in the code.

Worth noting (I think) is that a completely unrelated program Goldwave,
intermittently loses it's registration codes (lately, Wine 0.9.5x ?).  My own
thinking is that this is an advapi32 problem.
