RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] BobcadV18 training CD required & black CD note

Better yet copy all your training CD's on to an external hard drive. Or copy all onto one DVD.

Hi Guys,I need a copy of Version 18 disc # 2 of the 4 CD training set. Icalled Bobcad this morning and they said they'd replace my entire set,but later called to inform me that they didn't have any left. Theyoffered to upsell me V22, but I only the information for one 3Doperation only, which Sheetcam can't do. So I hope it's OK to ask forit on this list, seeing as how it appears Bobcad is unable to supportit any longer.When I first recieved the program with the 4 CD trainingmaterial, disc#4 wouldn't play and Bobcad replaced it immediatelywith a silver, regular looking CD. That was Dec/03. The original CD'swere all black and opaque at the hub hole. I was able to train offthe 4 discs and made notes of topics on the sleeves; there was no index.This #2 disc is in mint condition. I keep CD's in the sleeve orthe deck to prevent scratches and marks. I got a feeling that theblack CD material deteriorates over time and the reading deck isunable to threshold the information. I tried it in 3 modern systems -no luck.If my assumption is correct, it might be worthwhile to copy allof your black, opaque CD's over to newer silver CD's or you may sufferthe same fate as me.cheers,Denis
