Windows 8 should be able to access the License Manager; XP and Vista are the two that can no longer access it. In any case, simply open the license manager on your new laptop, and request a license unlock. Once an admin unlocks them, you'll be able to allocate them to your new laptop.

Windows 8 should not be a problem. The people who couldn't load the license manager in the past were using XP/Vista which are now indeed unsupported by SimSig. Do you get any error message from the license manager? Also, you can request an unlock of your license in the license manager on your new computer. It should be granted within a few days and sometimes faster if one of the admins happens to read the forum. AJP in games Log in to reply |

On your new machine use License Manager to request an unlock of each license (also Tools -> Unlock all IIRC).
