-=PCTechTalk=- Re: Greeting Card Factory woes

Merry Christmas everyone!!  The kids and grandkids have come and gone and I 
am again trying to install this infernal card program. G, I did go back to 
all of those places you suggested and deleted temp files.  Still got the 
Error 1335 both from the disk and from the one I copies to C Drive.  I 
rebooted and tried.  Still get the error.  I emptied all temp files again 
and tried again.  It installed and asked for the second disk.  Second disk 
threw the same error.  I have tried repeatedly and cannot get the first disk 
to finish installing more than that one time.
I looked in Windows Explorer and did not find a cab file in the temp files 
but I found in C, Documents and Settings, user name,local settings, temp 
the error logged in Notepad (Error 1335 twice and then Error 2350. FDI 
server error several times)
I emptied the recycle bin and tried again.  No go.
Nova tech says since it happened with both version 5 and version 7 I may 
need to clean the drive using a product called a drive head cleaner, 
available in most electronics or office supply stores.
 What is your opinion concerning the Nova tech suggestion?  Keep in mind 
though that I can install version one with no problem.
Also do you recall that I found the cab file when I copied the first 
installer disk to my C Drive?  When I tried to unzip it, I got the message 
that the cab file was corrupt.
Another thought--Would the Old C Drive be able to cause problems of this 
nature?  I have not dealt with that issue yet and have a folder on my C 
Drive labeled old C Drive and put there when my local tech last worked on my 
machine.
I have an external hard drive that I could put the old C Drive on to test 
that theory but I would need a bit of guidance on making that transfer.  So 
far I have not put anything over on the new hard drive but it is showing in 
My Computer and available.
I was encouraged by getting the first disk to complete and request the 2nd 
disk that one time and I hope that tells you something about my problem.
