David, One thing that might work is running the Cardisc viewer application in Windows XP mode. Here are some details:
http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/using-windows-vista-compatibility-mode/ If that doesn't work, you can use a third-party program to convert the image files from the disc. They're in some weird format, but I used a Mac program called GraphicConverter to batch convert them all to GIF. Took a little work to get the pages sorted and numbered, but now I've got them viewable on my Mac without having to use the Cardisc application. Third option is just to buy a new disc. The newer Cardisc versions are in PDF format so you don't need to go through all this hassle. Good luck. Tom [email protected] > I have the cardisk version also. But I find it a real problem.
