'The Piping Guide' 2nd Ed 1991, 264 pages, is available on CD using an Adobe PDF file for the PC Windows format only. It works with Windows 98, 98SE, 2000, XP, Vista, and Windows 7. It has been tested for all of these versions. Due to changes in Adobe Acrobat Reader, there have been problems with versions 7 and 9. Version 8 and earlier versions work fine.

Windows Vista and Windows 7: Due to security enhancements implemented in the these operating system, the user must have Administrative Privileges in order to run a HexaLock protected CD (or have an administrator near by to enter the administrator password upon execution). To run the CD: When the CD is inserted into the drive, browse to the files in "My Computer" or Windows Explorer, and right-click the "Start-Here.exe" or the main Program executable. In the pop-up menu, click "Run as administrator". (alternately, in the pop-up menu, click "Properties", click the "Compatibility" tab, and check the "Run this program as an administrator" check-box. This will instruct Vista to remember this action for all subsequent executions of the program, and the user may run the executable with a shortcut or by simply double-clicking it.)
