14101 2001-06-13 09:38:00 I tried to run the demo cd, but the cd rom just sits there and blinks and nothing that's in the root directory (bar a couple of text files) loads properly. I tried it on another computer with the same result. My friend's mother runs a netcenter and she got a whole lot of defective CD's on the magazines that she was selling.

Anyone else have this problem? How would I go about getting a good CD?

14102 2001-06-19 08:04:00 Are you talking about the CD that comes with the magazine every month? Well i have been having a problrm aswell. The CD typically 'autoruns' the start up screen then goes into the index.html file on the CD automatically. Who ever compiled the CD has made a rather big booboo or 2 of the computers in my house dont like me. The autorun tries to run the startup screen (introdices PC world etc) and then loads for a while, then it starts to load the intro again, loads for a while, then tries to load the intro again and so on and so on. This gets to the point where my computer freezes and so does my dads. We are both running 98 SE my dads comp has a 700mhz 10GB HDD and mine is a 300mhz with a 8GB partitioned HDD

Someone needs to check that out, because i would like a new CD
