(I've uninstalled and installed everything I am supposed to have and have checked I'm not doing anything / not doing anything I need to on the sticky thread).

When I try to update the new Character Builder, I am told my login details are incorrect....only they aint!

I'm running it through Windows Vista Basic.

Just for the sake of being accurate - it's gone back to telling me my login details are incorrect. Grr.

Have you tried logging in to the wizards web site with the same email address and password to ensure it is working there? If it is logging in, go to one of the bonus tools and see if it gives you access or asks you to subscribe.

If the error is that we think you are not subscribed but you have purchased a valid DDI subscriptions, call CS and they can quickly rectify the issue.

No problems logging into the site. I Contacted CS and they suggested that I had not uninstalled the beta properly. I was sure I had, but just in case purged all traces of the Character Builder from my system. Rebooted. Re-Installed...no change.

Just to ensure I have accurate information, after you log in to the site, if you go to this link:

http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/insider/encountertool

are you asked to subscribe or do you have a functioning encounter builder tool?

It's sorted...and I feel pretty stupid...As my username I was entering...well, my Username instead of my email address. In other words, I was actually entering the wrong info.

Begin the mocking

By the way Customer Services were brilliant; quick to reply and very clear with their instructions. 100% impressed (and the Character Builder rocks too) :D
