Many thanks. Not having two pc's or a home network, I'm going the route of
copying the CD to hard drive. However, I'm now puzzled how to install from
hard drive.
I am looking for setup.exe but can only find a number of setupxxx.exe files
there. Does this mean that I have to click on each of the setupxxx.exe files
-- or -- have I missed something ?? (I did make sure that ALL files &
folders were visible including system files before I copied CD)
