Anybody else have trouble with the copy protection on their technical publication CDs? It drives me bonkers. Both my 2/3/3A and my Spitfire discs constantly tell me, "Please Insert Original Disc." It *is* the original disc, you pain in rear. Some times they work on one computer, some times on the other, other times I have to keep taking the disc out and putting it back in until it works.
I see on the Heritage Motor Centre website that they are no longer selling the CDs due to 'technical difficulties'. Wonder if these are them...
I did actually figure out how to cheat and dump the files off the CD to unprotected PDFs, so the ones I use most often are not a problem anymore. But it's slow to convert them, so I occasionally have to go back to the discs to get something I haven't 'freed' yet. (and no, I won't tell you how to do it. I don't want to be seen as promoting piracy, I'm just trying to use the stupid documents I bought fair and square.)
