OK, sorry.  Did all of that. It installed but now when I run it, a 
dialogue says "The Xara X font is not installed".  It tells where to 
find it on the CD, but it's already in the windows font dir on the fake 
drive.  So I copied it over anyway, changed permissions to match the 
other fonts, and it still gives the same thing.  Stuck again.

Any clues?  Thanks.
