   I sometimes have some extra time at work but I do not have administrator rights to the computer at my desk and I tried to install Aurora on and external hard drive and run it from there but the installer does not give you a choice of where to install it so it always installs in the program files of my work computer which will not run it. Is there a way to install and run from an external hard drive?

| The installer for the beta release is very primitive to say the least... it will be replaced for 1.0. Due to some installation issues the directory selection was disabled for the 0.2 beta. However, there is a manual way to change the directory if you don't mind jumping through some extra hoops... Inside the zip file there are two directories (one is /Sequencer and the other is /Scheduler).  Both of those directories have a file "setup.lst".  Both "setup.lst" files can be edited from notepad.  Just change the directory path in both of those files.  A word of caution- the setup.lst in both of the directories must contain the same path.  If the two do not agree on the same path then the universe will implode (well, not really, but Aurora will not function properly). | |

   Thanks Dewey, I have been doing much better with my designs as I learn how to use Aurora. Thanks for all your help and support.
