Hi all,
probably the wrong forum but anyhoo. I have bought that big beginner Dark BASIC book (the premier press one) , it also comes with a CD with games and sourcecode. When I try to run the CD on my computer it doesnt autorun, and then when I either tell it to run, or go to my computer and double click on it, windows freezes and it doesnt work.
Im am rather confused and would be helpful of any help given.

Oli

Try right-clicking on the CD in the My Computer window and select explore instead.

An HTML page should come up when the CD is autoplayed. Then if you want to view the source code you need to explore the CD.
