Hi,
I'm new to SAS and your forums. I recently installed SAS 3.9 on my main system (Athlon 2400, VIA chipset). When I try to update the program, the system tells me, "database definitions are up to date." However, when I check the site, I find newer definitions.
Then, when I download the new files, it still shows the same Core and Trace Definitions.
This is even more strange because I installed it on my laptop, and it immediately updated the files correctly.
I thought it could be a bad installation so yesterday, I uninstalled SAS, Ran Registry Mechanic to clean any lingering vestiges from my registry and re-installed it.
Today, my system showed:
Definition Database Version:
Core: 301
Trace: 1393
I tried to update the program, and got the message that there were no newer updates. When, I checked the site, I found:
Core Definitions: 3402 02/13/2008 05:42PM PST 1946KB
Trace Definitions: 1394 02/13/2008 05:42PM PST 125KB
I extracted the definitions from the zipped file and copied them to the program folder. When I restarted the program, it still showed the previous values.
TIA for any help or insight.

Update -- I am able to update my laptop, but I still can't update my desktop machine.
