How do you read the DVD's of archived material from Model Engineering Website? I can't see any html files in file explorer.

Probably best to ask David, contact via the "ask a question" box at the bottom of his editorial page.

I assume you have done this?

" all you need to do is to pop the disc into your computer DVD Drive slot (Not a TV DVD player) and then open one of the three folders:

SPECIAL FEATURES

MODELS TO BUILD

GREAT MODELS

In these folders are listed all the articles on the disc. Just select the article you want to see and double click the html file of the article (only open files ending in .html and ignore those folders ending in _files"

Open the CD, Open one of the folders listed above, Scroll down (quite a long way), and lo and behold, lots of .html files. Click on the one you want, and read to your hearts content…….dohhhhh.
