Gents,
Thanks for your help. I was able to borrow an external usb CD/DVD drive and do a max install of CAOD onto my netbook. I don't need the CD anymore to play the game now that it's loaded onto the hard drive. I did have that installation-test-error described in SUBSIM tech tips, but the recommended fix worked just fine. Also, I had to tell Win XP to run the game in Win 95 compatability mode and in 256 color/640x480 mode.

There seems to be a bit of snow/video noise on certain screens. Occasioanlly, the screen also turns mostly pink, which fixes itself if I cycle the screens. But overall, it's playable, and much more satisfying than the kids' games that seem to be the only things made for netbooks.

Again, thanks for the help.
