I have a G3si rel 9 software system that i needed the processor card replaced.......when i put the wrong rel (12 i think) into the system, the switch came up but i had a license error in my alarm logs.....i tried to put the old card back in and the system wouldnt come back up.......can someone explain why the system wouldnt come back up....no save trans was done after the new card was installed

The only way to find out is to put back the R12 processor, and do a "status card-mem" or "list con soft long" to see what date & version the translations on the flashcard are. If it says r12 something, err, well, thats not so good. I don't believe there is a way to downgrade translations (except maybe Provision).
However, if the system does not come up at all, are you sure it has anything to do with the translations, the old processor may be failing?

It's quite possible that the translations on the card were corrupted when the r12 processor tried to access or update them. Hopefully you had another memory card with duplicate r9 translations saved to it.

In since Release 10 the license is generated with the Processor Serial Number, in you replace the processor a new licence file must be generated, there is no other way
