Even older version MC?

Hi Eva,

Just a guess... your app expects to find a CD and then reads files from this CD. The path to the files is probably saved in a variable somewhere. Now you have disabled this feature and your app can no longer find the files. As a result, your scripts no longer work properly. Do you think this could be the cause of your problems?

The only thing I'm doing is to change the start up file (exe) so it doesn't check for a CD in a drive. I then save the start up file. As a result I get all kinds of issues with errors in other stacks which I haven't touched! I have tried doing this on two Vista systems, 32 and 64 bits which makes no significant difference.
