Hi All,

Hopefully someone can help.

I have downloaded all 8 parts of the Bravo manual from this site, extracted them and put them on disc. Now this is were the problem starts. When I try and open / load the disc I get a error box saying '' insert CD ROM'' with the options ok or cancel and if you click ok it just keeps coming back.

I have also tried running the start and setup programs in the files with the same message coming up.

Any ideas on how I make it work? I’m taking my turbo off tonight and would like a guide on how to do it rather than just going for it.

Many thanks

Michael
 
Hi there.
Ok, I’ll give that a try.

Before I do this is what I’m doing, am I doing it right?

Downloaded all 8 parts. Used WinRar to open the first file, which opened them all and put them into a folder.

So now I have a folder (New Bravo eLEARN) with a few files (Database, image, autorun, setup etc etc)

So I copied all of the files and burnt them to a disc.

Then my problems start.

So if I do the same but using Nero (instead of windows) and at a slow speed it should work, or am I doing something above wrong.

Many thanks

Michael
 
At one point if you open the files and find that you have one big file with the ISO extention, don't open it with winrar, use the cd burner software to burn it into a cd.

If there's no ISO file and there are many files folders, make sure you put the first level of folders and files at the root of the CD.

There is an alternative way to access elearn:

Create the ISO as before

install a virtual CD drive (I use VirtualClonedrive from Elaborate Bytes) then mount the ISO file to simulate the cd being read :)

Hi guys and girls,

I do not want to open a new thread, as i also have a few questions about eLearn.

1. Is here a way to make it fit a wide display?? seeing that is uses html to render the window itself.. it should not be that difficult...but i have not found a way yet. As it is i hate it. the usable information is so narrow..but the program still takes up the rest of the screen. This brings me to quetion #2 :

2. Is there a way to make the program run in a window (i.e. not-fullscreen)??

I've already tied the usual -w, -windowed parameters, the ALT+Enter, CTRL+ENTER key combination.. but no go.


The only thing i manged to do is a VBScript that uses the run method..the starts the application minimized in te taskbar hand after i click it ..it wind ..in sort of a window-mode, in the top left corner..but it is not resizable and cannot be moved.
 
For anyone still having issues with mounting the ISO-file I would, as other's in this thread, highly recommend virtual mounting. There's lots of free mounting programs out there such as Deamon Tools. Go for the Lite-version, free and easy to use.

This is very helpful as many laptops these days aren't even sold with CD-ROMs. Thanks for the eLearn-manual again, didn't have my exact engine specifications but looks great for other dealings!

Not to drag up old threats, but as this was genuinely the only mention of this issue i thought i would share my solution with future googlers:

If you open the [E-learn install directory]\Web\html folder
open main1.ehtm with you favorite text editor (notepad will do)
Change the width:780px to width:100% and save it.
Now the most important part of e-learn will run full width. (background images will be displayed a but odd)
If you want to go full width all the way you need to change width:710px to width:100% in the homepage0.ehtm file as well.

If you never edited a html file you might want to save an original somewhere before changing them in case you corrupt these 2.

Good luck and a happy widescreen to you!

If your running Windows 10 you don't need any software it can mount ISO files on a virtual drive natively
