Whats not happening????
Try clicking on START>> PROGRAMS>> WINDOWS EXPLORER
then go to the CD from there, and DOUBLE CLICK on START.exe
or
Click on START>> RUN and type in D:\start.exe (if D is your CD drive) then click on OK.

Have you instaled Quicktime or Media player yet? , if not thats your problem you dont have the software to play the mpegs.
You can download them from the internet , search Google site for them.
If you do have these players instaled im lost and dont know the answer.

The CD doesnt come with them???
thought that would have been the first thing they did.
yes install quicktime www.quicktime.com and Media player www.microsoft.com for that one.

Sorry Peter, your computer must be in the dark ages.
Hope your not buying the mag just for the CD's, from all reports, its not worth getting excited over.

Who's the report's from ?
I wouldn't buy the mag just for the CD ether but anything they give you extra for free i will have.
Some of the mpegs on 4wd comps ( tuff truck) are ok.
I think other mag's wished they had of thought of it first.
good luck to them.

No Kev, its more the fact that sometimes its hard if not impossible to get the CD to run properly. When they do get it to run, its not really original stuff. Most is available from other sources.
Yeah but you are right, anything thats free is good.
