Hello,
Well this messege shows up right before the full installation of the 3rd cd is completed. I also get the option of terminating the installation right then and there or ignoring the error and continuing the installation. I've had completed the installation and everything seems to work fine except the internet connection, modem and sound card. I have a toshiba tecra so i was expecting the sound card not to work properly. Well that is all the information I can give you. Thanks for replying
