Dale...thanks for the suggestion yes , its the one I use for all my installs. Very possible...I know I have some CDs that don't always work on different drives...or they work on mine and not on someone elses....altohugh I have never had problems with this particular drive not installing anything correctly. Guess there's always a first. I just reinstalled P5 last night, so will probably see if I get anything back for Curious prior to reinstalling again. I'll use my burner next time...but I have to be careful, I use the 3 strike rule, and we're on 2 right now :)
