Success! I installed to the default directory, this time. At this point it popped up the "activate the trial version" dialog, which I had ignored when opening the editor. It had not done this before when trying to compile. So I activated it. Then it said my DirectX installation was out of date (I coulda sworn I had the latest...) so I downloaded and upgraded to DX9.0c. And now stuff compiles and runs.

Also same guy posts at http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=105670&b=15 with:

Solution: I uninstalled, and reinstalled to the default directory. I "Activated" the demo. I upgraded DirectX. I am tempted to uninstall again, and install back to a non-default dir to see if the problem recurs... but not that tempted.

Hope that helps. If I remember correctly Dark Basic Pro is now free? At least according to:

I figured it out. I had to activate it by logging on the product.
