Fresh install of SageTV client not letting me re-use same license key

I have been a loyal Sage customer for years and have been using SageTV Client on Windows Vista for a long time. I recently reformatted my client PC and installed Windows 7 beta. When I load SageTV client 6.5.11 for the first time and enter my trusty license key, I get the error seen in the attached screenshot and it won't let me continue! This is very frustrating as this is the primary way I watch SageTV.

Thoughts? Is there any way to clear out the old license somehow and start fresh?

UPDATE: Read on another post that "You probably need to reboot the server. It probably still remembers the client access from the previous system." Sure enough, I rebooted the server and restarted the SageTV client and it is fixed. Just wanted this here should others installing Windows 7 like me have the same issue!

Either that license key is already in use on another client PC or you need to restart SageTV on your server. It may see the newly reformatted/Windows installation as a different PC.
