Hi,
I have also emailed Andre, but I have been reading his posts and think he may be out of town now. I purchased the StLNA and tried loading it this morning. I have tried to load several times, along with re-unzipping files into different temp folders, but I still get the Insert Disk # 02 error. I looked on the forum and could not see any help there. Can you suggest anything I may have missed.
Files in the temp folder
St. Louis and North Arkansas RR.exe
St. Louis and North Arkansas RR.-02
Thru
St. Louis and North Arkansas RR.-06
There is also a txt help file.
Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Jeremy Reese

Not seen that problem before, but just out of interest, do you have all of the MSTS routes installed ? - the routes are on disc #2.
I don't know if the StL&NA calls for anything from the routes ((textures, shapes etc. If it does, it certainly isn't many).
Also, was it a d/l or CD? If a d/l, perhaps you need to d/l again.
To test out, I have just installed the CD version to a temporary folder. All there was on the CD was the Instal.exe - nothing else to extract. Question then, how have you got these files in the temp folder - did they come from the Instal.exe?;
St. Louis and North Arkansas RR.exe
St. Louis and North Arkansas RR.-02
Thru
St. Louis and North Arkansas RR.-06
Anyone else got any ideas.

Jeremy:
Check your email. I have typed out a detailed response/instructions to your email question.
For the record: No VSC product copies any files from any of the 6 default routes. They are completely stand alone.

Problem solved. Thanks much guys, but what I did was transfer the files to my laptop that does not have internet access. Dial-up is all that is available in this section of Upper Michigan, and I downloaded it on my computer at night. I went so far as trying to use the wireless on the laptop while I was at the Dentist office, but I forgot the download URL on my printer before I left. Would have been much simpler if I had the high-speed. When I tried the solid download on the dial-up, I got to about 74 MB when the dial-up dialed down. So I had to go with the segmented download.
When I transferred it to the laptop, I made a temp folder, New Folder, on the desktop to unzip the files to. That did not work when I ran the .exe file after extracting all 6 zip files there, and I got the error for Disk #02. Then I just left it in the first folder on the c:\unzipped\ folder. Still no go. After looking around and thinking, I made a folder, c:\temp and unzipped all to that. It worked and I got the route up and steaming.
Thanks for the help, I do appriciate it.
