sorry, I had to go off like that, It's something I go off on people about
all the time. I think if I ever move, or when is looking more likely right
now, I'll take the box my software and manuals are in now, tape it and call
that packed honestly but I know how it is. You'd really need it to run most
of the scans that might help you though. I actually on 1 computer copied all
the contence of the CD over to the hard drive in a folder for scans like
that and also for those driver installs that ask you to insert the CD. I
should do it with this computer, not like I don't have the room, I just
haven't done it yet.
