[WriteLog] Installing Writelog

[Gary AL9A]

John,

I'm running WL on a Dell laptop under Vista Home Premium and had no trouble 
with the install.  What version of WL is on your CD?  If it is a several 
years old edition, there may be some compatibility issues.

Do you have AutoPlay enabled within Vista?  To check go to Control 
Panel\Hardware and Sound\AutoPlay.  The second line from the top of the 
screen has a check box  to "Use AutoPlay for all media and devices".  If 
this is not checked your CD will not start automatically when inserted.

If AutoPlay is enabled and the CD still won't go, try the following: (Found 
under Windows Help and Support FAQ's for AutoPlay)

To run or install a program one time, follow these steps:

Click to open Computer.

Right-click the device or drive, and then click Run enhanced content or 
Install or run program.

Hope one of these works for you.

73,
Gary AL9A
