So I break down pony up the $9.95 despite the fact the sound drivers issue is still not fixed & buy 6.5 ... & now I can't even open up OOTP 6 because I get the dreaded Error message 23 for Elicense when I try to open the game. And yes I disabled my personal firewall & yes license control is enabled on my Control Panel.

Any suggestions now. I've even ruined getting into OOTP 6!
