Default Data Manuals?

I ordered a Data Manuals cd set recently, but i can't get the launcher to work, has anybody else bought one of these things and had any problems with them?

2x CDs
2x Floppys

To gain information on Subaru Impreza WRXs MY97(import)
It's supposed to copy from Mitchell on Demand.

If your after workshop manuals they can be found here:

Most are .pdf format, so no fancy software needed.

I see what you mean, i have some basic instructions with it, but when i right click as you say a message comes up saying it isn't compatible with my version of windows and to check if i need a x86 for a 32bit version or a x64bit verion. i think i need the 64bit version. I've sent a reply to WHICHMANUAL, they might say to send it back and replace it with a suitable one (fingers crossed).

Thanks guys.

unless u have vista 64 or windows 7 64 bit then u can run it either way if u have 32bit operating system then obviously a 64bit disc woulddnt work although a 32bit disc would work on a 64bit operating system the computer can downgrade its own spec to run later material but cant upgrade itself to run superior material etc etc hope this helps mate

I've got Vista. ya haven't got a good link by any chance have you? the last time i tried a freebee it was a badly scanned copy of a manual, looked like they were drunk when they made it.

I'm looking at the Ali B link too, ta.
