Thanks for that reply.
Yes, I have now attempted install 10 times and have also installed all of the files on a new hard drive and tried to run them that way but the result is always the same. I printed the instructions and followed to the letter but at the same point in each install I get a different screen than the instructions

I emailed the fellow who sold me the cd's but he is totally unhelpful, to say the least.
I was hoping someone might have been through this and have an answer specific to this set of 4 cd's
