GtW-
Thank you for your reply- It sounds about right, although the software is from fairly reputable Creative Labs / Soundblaster (who make mp3 players and sound card software, so I'm assuming they're up to speed...).
I'm thinking conflict somewhere (the Install Wizard seems to open twice, two tabs in the bar at the bottom of the screen- When prompted about the Flash Player "problem", clicking "OK" takes me to the Flash download page (uninstalled/installed several times), clicking "Cancel" aborts the whole process).
I have the registration code and all, but the software never actually installs, as the Wizard gives up. I cannot find any meaningful "help" on the website.
Again, this is the first time I encounter this problem...
