2007, 2.0.3?, XP.

Tried starting OOTP 2007 tonight. Gave me an error saying that it "could not get a license at this time. Please try running this program later. 58 1"
So I tried restarting. Same error.

So I tried downloading the installer from the website and reinstalling. Fail.
Reinstall after deleting all related folders after the uninstall. Fail.
Uninstall, reinstall elicense program. Fail.
Uninstall elicense program, remove ootp, reinstall ootp, fail.
Try doing this with turning firewall off. Fail.

Try contacting elicense company. Tells me to try an offline registration, gives instructions. Instructions impossible to follow because program gets error before it gets to the licensing menu.

Waiting on next response from elicense company, posting issue here for future reference, I guess.

Is the licensing menu supposed to come up at the end of the install? I noticed that for several minutes after the install, there was a msiexec.exe process still running but not doing anything.

Also, the elicense program in the control panel does nothing when I try to open it.

(I think I have the original game installer file from around July on a disk here somewhere. Maybe I'll trying installing with that and then patch it from there.)
