The server (lmadmin or lmgrd) has not been started yet, or the wrong port@host or license file is being used, or the TCP/IP port or host name in the license file has been changed.

I recently upgraded my motherboard and since then, I have been unable to use 3ds Max. Everytime I open it, the error message 'the software license checkout failed. Error 20' appears.
I tried reinstalling it and that didn't work. Then, I enabled FlexLicense (which seems to solve the problem for most users) but nothing changed. I then deleted two.CAS files from ADLM and reinstalled the program. This didn't work either. Please, I need help urgently as I use 3ds Max for my work and it's due within a week!
