Just on a side note - this happened a few months back when I was trying to install MDK on a client's machine - turned out the CDROM was overtly dirty and dusty. After a THOROUGH cleaning of the CDROM drive, the installation went without a flaw. That's one thing I always check now right off the bat as I'm sick and tired of having problems with software on CD's and the customers don't take the time nor the effort to clean them. Always nice to have an air compressor handy (grin) - as I do. stephen kuhn - owner ============================== illawarra computer services a kuhn media australia company http://kma.0catch.com ------------------------------------------------------------------ * This message was composed on a 100% Microsoft free computer * We expressly refuse to utilise Microsoft DRM encoded documents ------------------------------------------------------------------ It is through symbols that man consciously or unconsciously lives, works and has his being. -- Thomas Carlyle
