    hi folks need some help with getting my apps from the recovery cd, so i can install them on win 7.

    i have 3 recovery cds, i had a look at cd 3, which contains mod files and .sny files. im mainly after the windvd bd application and maybe the adobe premier apps too...

    can anyone shed some light on the best way to do it?
    i looked at some of the exisiting threads, but got no where,

    is windvd bd contained in the bog standard image? or is it in a mod file
    cheers

    With Windows running what happens when you put disk one in the machine? On many models you should get an application that allows you to install specific drivers and applications. When it comes up it will say something about, "if you want to restore the entire system then boot from this disk, if you want to install a specific driver or application then proceed." That is not exactly what it says but the gist of it.
