It's the download for VM.

You do not need a disk.

Just click the download link for your operating system and when the box comes up click "Open" and it'll auto install for you.

I do it that way on all Microsoft updates and patches as I find no need to store the exe.

We all had to go through the learning process you're experiencing so not to fret,it'll be fine.:)

Cheers

Ed

Harold,

Before you download and install Microsoft's latest VM, be sure to end all programs running on your computer, except Explorer and Systray. You can do this by simultaneously pressing the Alt/Ctrl/Delete keys.

A window will be opened with a list of the active tasks that are running on you computer. Select one of the tasks and click on the "End Task" button.

Repeat this process - Alt/Ctrl/Delete, "End Task" - until only Explorer and Systray are running. Then go to the Microsoft VM download site and download and install Microsoft's latest VM. After the install is complete, reboot your computer.

B.K.

If you have any problems with Microsoft VM and the Java applets still don't work try using Sun's java plugin. I had to use it last year because of problems and it worked fine. I believe the problems were with Datek's streamer.

java.sun.com
