Hi. No need for classic view. Also, on your thumb drive, create a folder
called 70 or something short and simple. Open your WE cd and when the
folders and files are displayed, press control-a to select all and
control-c to copy. Now open the 70 folder on your thumb drive and
control-v there. This will copy the 500 plus mb of data of the WE cd
onto your thumb drive. Now when you run the install, just run
x:\70\setup from the netbook, of course changing x to what ever the
drive is. When you put the drive in, you might just be able to open the
folder. Press the first letter of the folder, 7 in my example. Press
enter, now press s once to get to setup and press enter. From that point
on, the talking installer will work.
many thanks.

Hello,
I am using WE 7.01 and have the CD for WE 7.0. Using Windows Vista. I want
to copy the CD onto a thumb drive so that I can then put WE on my MSI Wind
netbook. I have attempted to copy the CD to my thumb drive but did not know
whether to use the copy to clipboar

D command and paste to the thumb drive or the "send to" and then indicate
that it should be sent to the thumb drive. I tried both. When I thought WE
was on the thumb drive, I used Windows Narrator to get the netbook started
and reached the desktop. Netbook has Windows XP Home on it but isn't
configured for Classic view yet so I get lots of messages I don't need when
it starts up. When I put the thumb drive into one of the USB ports, I have
to search for WE since there's lots of stuff on the thumb drive which
apparently came with it. I tried to delete the junk. I chose the properties
menu and selected the copy option and attempted to install WE onto the
netbook. My efforts failed. I thought I could run WE as a regular INSTall
from thumb drive to the netbook using i.e. f: backslash Install. Sorry
this is long but I need help! Jo Taliaferro
