Just had the error "Product Activation could not write the activation signature" when trying to activate Multiplicity Pro on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. Thought I'd post what solved it to help anyone who got a similar problem... I solved it by running Impulse and choosing Re-Activate. It did take the opportunity to complain that my subscription to Object Desktop was expired, but the program was activated anyway (as well it should, since I bought it out of the Object Desktop bundle).

I've had Multiplicity for years, but I just got a new computer, and thus have been using to try it out and copy my software over. One thing I didn't know is that it works well for games. I didn't have any problems nor noticed any lag, even on new games such as Battlefield: Bad Company 2. Another thing I didn't know - but didn't like either - is that if I turn off my secondary computer while it has the keyboard focus, everything gets locked up on the main computer. Turning the secondary on does make it go back, however. PS: That last problem depends on how you are doing the computer switching. I was simply switching with the mouse, with shift pressed. If you configure shortcut keys, those do switch back fine...
