Phone software question

David · Sep 28, 2008, 15:43:19

Ok,its been a while

The software which came with my phone is on a mini CD but the CD cannot be read by my pc because of the pc has a slot and not a tray.
If I manage to get the software on another pc would this software be able to be transfered via a memory stick?

Rik · Sep 28, 2008, 15:44:29

Yes.

David · Sep 28, 2008, 15:48:10

That pushed the bounderies

Why use these stupid discs anyway ?

Rik · Sep 28, 2008, 15:48:59

I can read the CD for you if you don't have a suitable drive.

Rik · Sep 28, 2008, 15:50:34

What don't you understand, David?

Simon · Sep 28, 2008, 15:52:43

How you can read a CD when it's in his house?

David · Sep 28, 2008, 15:55:13

I know your good Rik but by god isnt this a bit vain ?

Rik · Sep 28, 2008, 15:56:00

Send it to me, I'll lift it to a full-sized CD for you.

Steve · Sep 28, 2008, 15:59:03

Surely the phone software is available as a download.I never bother with the one that comes with the phone as its usually out of date and as soon as you install it,it then insists on an update.

David · Sep 28, 2008, 16:00:31

Let me guess.put it on another machine and burn it to a full size disc ?

I do have google earth but do I just put your name in and voila ?

Rik · Sep 28, 2008, 16:01:10

No, if you want me to do it I'll PM you my address.

What phone is it, David? It should be available online, which is better anyway as it'll be an up-to-date version.

Steve · Sep 28, 2008, 16:05:26

Copy the contents of the CD on another machine to a memory stick and the install, you shouldn't need to burn a new CD

Its an LG software update program, not downloaded it I wonder whether it will ask for the presence of the original.
