cvtrian Posted April 6, 2022 Report Share Posted April 6, 2022 If CDs are "old hat", why not send new members an SD card or memory stick including the Technicalities content, along with any other "welcome pack" information. Ditching, (or putting the information away on the website) one of the best initiatives of any classic car club does not seem to make sense to me. Ian Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have copied the files to a dvd that seems to work on my wife’s windows 7 PC. Peter W Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ian Why not just make it accessible on the server of TR Register to members, or as a download. Most PC’s have plenty of HDD and processor power to have it saved in your files. A lot of PC’s don’t even come with a CD/DVD now. Kevin Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Click on the "read the publication" icon. At the bottom of the page image there is a search icon, click on that and enter the search word or phrase. It works really well.

Greg Posted April 6, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2022 Thanks Mick. I will give that a go. Meanwhile, I will be collecting a spare off of a local chap and someone is loaning their original too. So, as far as my request, I’m all sorted. But thanks again for your help.

Lebro Posted April 7, 2022 Report Share Posted April 7, 2022 Greg. I have both the TR register intro DVD, & the technicalities CD. I can copy them both & send to you (to keep) if required. No charge, just the postage. Bob Quote Link to post Share on other sites
