Here is another "horror" story about DirectCD...
I could never install it...  Adaptec's "solution" was to install "the PATCH"
I asked them point blank "How do you patch a program that won't install?"
They told me to buy a newer version, (again).
Not much of a "work-around"...
Luckily, I was spared all the "other" problems of having it.
