Hello, fellow mapfolk:
 
Did anybody else get a new edition of GNIS on depository (I19.120:G25/CD)?
Has anybody had trouble loading it?  I've  tried to install it three times,
but each time I get a message part way through the installation that says
that it can't access my cdrom drive, and then one of those annoying
abort/retry/fail? messages.  This after it's been happily addressing my
cdrom drive for a couple of minutes at least.  I probably have a defective
disk, but am wondering if I'm not the only one.  Luckily the September 1993
disk still works fine.
 
Any help would be appreciated.
