If you have followed the instructions at the link above, to the letter, please send me an email off-line with the exact error/failure and when it occurs (during install, after install, etc). WIth XP Pro, you should be able to get it working, with no extra hoop-jumping such as VirtualCD, etc. :) +dm > ------------------------------ > Date: Tue, 17 Jan 2006 17:55:56 -0500 > From: "Tom Scordato" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: [MBZ] Electronics Parts Catalog > > > Three computers later the latest being a brand new Dell Laptop with XP > profess loaded and three different versions 09/2001; 08/2002; 10/2003Bel= l > and Howell EPC and I can not get one to work.
