Following a total hard drive crash, I now have Win10 on a brand new hard drive. I have done a full download and install (all 110gb+ of it) and so far it works OK BUT - my WIn7 BB had a paid for (from PG) Coyote Forte Dxi. I cant find it in my 'Account' so where is it, how do I get my key code again and most importantly HOW DO I INSTALL AND SET IT UP?? Might seem ridiculous seeing as how I've used BB for years but it was many years ago since I did it in the first place. Bests Ian

I read in another post that your computer blew up. It is frustrating and difficult to get back up and running. I feel for what you're going through.
You will need to contact PG Music Sales about retrieving the Coyote Forte DXI file. PG Music Sales should be able to verify the purchase and provide a download link on your online account.
Note: The Coyote Forte DXi is only compatible with 32-bit hosts. Therefore it will work with the 32-bit version of Band-in-a-Box, but not the 64-bit version.
You would just download the demo from that page, and you use your forte serial number to convert the demo to the full version. You can contact us via Live chat and we can look up your number
This will not solve your current issue this is just for future reference:
And this is not meant to to arm chair quarterback but I keep a spreadsheet with title, the SERIAL NUMBER, and any additional authorization codes, iLok info , etc. as well as date purchased, price paid, where bought, etc. I keep that spreadsheet of titles & SN's in lots of places not just one internal drive - LOL (it easily fits on even a tiny thumb drive or SD card.)
FWIW on that "serial number" spreadsheet I also keep a copy of all all household items, firearms, music gear, etc. most anything with a high cost or a serial number - each similar collection of "thing" household items, music gear, firearms, ...are on separate spreadsheet tabs.
EDIT
PS I also agree with Fiddler2007 - you'll like the Halion SE GM sounds much better than Forte Coyote DXi

Jim right, I forgot, Since I have full Halion (as well) the missing sounds are kind of moot and again I forget.
see this thread to get FREE Steinberg Halion GM bank (usable in SE). Yes, its a little hoop jumping, but as a bonus maybe getting a free free notation program as well is appealing?
However, there are a few folks here that are always suggestion Halion Sonic SE.
Those folks might have an easier way to get the Halion GM bank??

Larry I completely understand. It's an easy mistake to make, particularly when you've grown accustomed to having a tool available. Except for the caution box the webpage does not give any other hint that the sound module does not include any patches.

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!
For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.
Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.
Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows® Today!
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows for free with build 1111!
With this update, there's more control when saving images from the Print Preview window, we've added defaults to the MultiPicker for sorting and font size, updated printing options, updated RealTracks and other content, and addressed user-reported issues with the StylePicker, MIDI Soloists, key signature changes, and more!
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
