Thanks for the info Bill. It kust seems to me if I
downloaded the 128 bit file for 5.0 from MIE that it
should work if I can get it to install. What is you
opinion of 6.0 ? Do you think I will have any problems
after I download it ?

Also thanks to you Bill Long. Bill do you also think I
will have any problems after I download 6.0 ? If I am not
happy with 6.0. can I go back to 5.0 ??
