[SOLVED] Windows .exe files
Hi gang,
I have a set of seven CDs with a video course on them but each CD is run via a Windows .exe file. How can I run a .exe file? Apparently this .exe file kicks off the course somehow. I'm actually surprised it's not a .avi file or some other kind of video file but such is life.
Thanks.
Mike

Check the CD carefully, I'm almost willing to bet that there are some avi or mpg files on the CD.

I found some video files but they weren't .avi or .mpeg or anything like that. Fortunately I was able to download an application and I can play the files just fine. The .exe file is set up to run the courses in their proper sequence and so I don't have that option now but I can at least play the videos now.

[SOLVED] Windows .exe files
I was able to download a file to play the videos but still can't run the .exe files. No biggy though. The point of the .exe file was to start a program that would play the videos in their proper order. I can play the videos; just not in their proper order until I figure out what the order is.
Good day.
