Make sure your Sentinel drivers are installed on the new machine, so that the machine can "talk" to the dongle. The Sentinel drivers should be on your LW[8] CD; or you can download the 5.41.0 "Sentinel SuperPro" drivers from here:

I'm using the 5.41.1 SuperPro drivers that came with my copy of Mirage; the only "official" Safenet site that has them is this one:

I hope this post helps.

Never mind, I didn't read your post good. Sorry, I don't have any tips. Only thing I can say is that I really dislik parallel dongles. The one I got with Aura broke 2 times.
Hope you find a solution!
