Hi I hope you will excuse me, but earlier today I asked for sites for extra tracks for GP2 and thank you to all who have assisted in this respect. Now ------------ I have visited a few of the places, and it seems that I have to have the NO CD-ROM patch installed in my computer. I am not a computer wizard, and do not want to mess something up because of my stupidity, so if someone could fill be in on the steps top load the patch properly ------------------- I again ------------- would appreciate the assistance. Thank you again. Nice to know a bunch of GREAT people are in here and willing to assist when needed. Doug

From memory (its been a long time since I installed the NO CD-rom patch?) you unzip (using winzip or similar) the file and extract the resulting files to your gp2 directory. Then run the "nocdrom.bat" file (with the gp2 cd in the cd drive) and it will copy all the necessary files to your hard disk, and you will then no longer require the cd. Its as easy as that? 8-) *Peter* 8-) (NB: remove asterix to e-mail)
