Problem: Now have two set of hardware code in one computer, how to fix it?

Long Version:
I recently purchased StreetDeck one week ago. I downloaded the trial version and installed it on my carputer. Everything was working fine at that point. So the next day when I want to start up SD again, it says the trial have expired and won't let me use the program. At that point I still haven't received the Registration code from SD and so I decided to uninstall SD and install it again. Upon the second installation, I noticed that the program now shows a different set of Hardware code.

So later the day I recevied the registration code for the first Hardware code when I first installed SD. I typed the code in and the program registered fine and unlocked all the features. After restarting my carputer, I tried to load SD and it goes to the Registration page with the second set of Hardware code. I typed the registration code I received from SD and it won't work and I was not able to use the program. Then I restarted my computer again and loaded SD fine with no problem.

So what exactly is the problem? It seems like there are two different hardware code on the same computer. Everytime when I can't get into SD, all I had to do is restart it and it would load up SD just fine. Is there anyway to fix this problem?

StreetDeck looks at your hard drive for its registration codes. If you remove a hard drive, your registration code will change. It should look for the primary master hard drive first. If you add more hard drives, it will check any entered registration codes against all of them.

You should transfer your license to your other codes and see if that fixes the problem.

I didn't install or remove any harddrive and I only have one harddrive. I seperated the harddrive into two partition, but when I reinstalled SD, I installed in the same drive.
