" c: on theserver is setup to share yet it won't allow me to access thenecessary files to setup as6. Dave"You stated that on the Server, the machine that fs9 is installed on,,, you shared drive C: , to the best of my knowledge that will not work. You must also share the "fs9 folder", you didn't mention sharing this,hopefully that is your current problem.I'm pretty sure i wrote it right. On the server you share "fs9 files" under the "My Documents" Drive C:,and the "fs9 folder", under the "Microsoft Games" folder. Do not share the "Microsoft Games" folder. only the "Fs9" folder.Now when you are sharing on the client machine, the one with ASV on it, it does work best if I share the root drive that ASV is installed on, not the root drive why does it work this way for me? I don't know, you know the absurdities of computers.Hope that helps, sometimes i don't make my self clear when typing. JimC.

Jim Thanks for the help I'm not really sure what I did, but everthing is working now all the drives are mapped and AS6 found all the files it needed to run corectly. Again thanks Dave.
