-=PCTechTalk=- Re: Greeting Card Factory woes

I used CleanUp to clean out all temp files etc., rebooted, went to Windows 
Explorer and copied GCF disk 1 to a folder on the C drive.  I opened the 
folder, clicked on the setup.exe and it went just as far as it did before 
and then threw the error message.  I probably opened about everything in 
that folder and one of them was an update of Adobe Reader 8 so I installed 
it.  I found a folder that just said GCF and I opened and attempted to 
install it and got the same message.  I found a Wizard Cab file and unzipped 
(tried to unzip it) and got to the place where it said file is corrupt.
I was really going out on a limb as I had no idea what I was doing as I 
tried several avenues to get this programmed installed.
I am going back now and try to install version 5 which was giving me the 
same error message before I purchased vers. 7.
G, what do I do next?
