try a manual start of your CD

Hello Bob,

First of all I don't think you have a bad CD. This sounds like one of those "What do I do my PC is not working the way I had expected?" questions. Like working on a car sometimes there are work arounds.

I no longer have my 107 CD (sold it with my car) but I do have the 129 CD and know there are "issues".

If your CD will not AutoRun let's try a manual run.

Go to My Computer, double click on the drive that your CD is in, i.e. D drive. On the right hand pane you should see all of the files that the cd has on it. Double click on one of the HTM files that read "welcome.htm" or "opening.htm", or something that clues you to run the first page of the program.

BTW, it is very important to use the Acrobat version 5.x that comes with the CD. Do not try and upgrade Acrobat or run the PDF files with Acrobat 7.x, etc.
