Paint Shop Pro X Help?

[Taurus2313]

I own Paint Shop Pro X and I just purchased a netbook which does not have a CD drive so I cannot use my installation disk to install it so can anyone please tell me how I can get my paint shop program onto my new netbook? I tried contacting Corel about this and they said that they no longer provide support for my program (Which is VERY frustrating) and redirected me to this site.. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance..

You could copy the contents of the CD to a USB stick or an SD card depending on what inputs your netbook has - or you could plug an external DVD/CD drive into your netbook and use that - or you could copy the CD to a portable hard drive and plug that into your netbook - or you could copy the CD across your network from another computer.

If you are going to put more programmes on your netbook you will need to find a permanent solution since a lot of software is supplied on disc - maybe an external CD/DVD drive could solve all your problems - since you will need to export your work somehow as well.

Awesome info! Thanks Brian..I will try to apply it to a portable hard drive and see if that will work..I didnt know if that would work or not considering certain functions of the install require on the disk running..But I will give that a try..Thanks so much again..

I have two netbooks -- An Acer running XP and a HP running Windows 7. On both I successfully use a large (16 GB) GB USB stick drive to install just about all my programs. But I also bought a small external USB DVD burner drive which works just as well...
