Day 9. Pm... 9 days gone and that's all I can say....very dissapointed, no help 4 at least 2 days, will I ever get this software to work... Fink Chris should employ a team to give 24 hour assistance, when he's on here is very helpful, but when not its very frustrating to get answers or help to get this software working... My belief is now dwindling I'm afraid... Will the 10th day be more rewarding I wonder! Watch this space dear forum readers........... |
