CD 2 for Install Fails - Garritan Instruments for Finale

[dominicelliott]

I am new to Wine and having a problem loading the second CD when installing software. I am installing Finale 2008 (music software) which comes with a library of sampled instruments that install from the first, second, and third CD. The main Finale install goes without a hitch and I have tested it a little and it seems to work.

However when installing the Garritan Instruments, it ejects the first CD and asks for the second. When I give it the second CD it accesses it, and then immediately ejects it and ask for the second CD again.

I have tried the install by double-clicking the .exe file, and by using winefile to start the installation. I have also looked in 'winefile' to ensure that when the second CD loads it is readable. It is. It looks like everything should work, but it doesn't.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Wine? So you're installing the Windows version of Finale 2008 onto Linux? Your signature says you have Finale 2014. Any reason you're not installing that? FWIW, my copy of Finale 2008 came on one DVD. Theoretically, any version of Garritan Instruments for Finale should work, if it installs a VST or Audio Unit.

But TBH, if you're running Linux, I'd just use MuseScore on it natively.

Wine? Please explain with more info.

Wine is a sort-of emulator that allows Linux computers to run Windows programs.

Well that counts me out.
