setup.exe

I purchased a new computer and tried to download the Pagemaker 7.0 software but there is no setup.exe file. I am using Windows XP. I am a novice and very frustrated as I need the software for a job. Any ideas? Thanks!

Just where exactly are you trying to download pagemaker from?

You can download and install PM7 tryout from here:

I have the software on a CD. This was an Education version - would that make a difference in being able to download it to another computer? I do have the serial number if that would be of help.

That's not a download, it's an installation.

What exactly are the steps you're taking here.

And under no circumstance should you post a serial number.

What files and folders DO you see on the CD?

I have an educational licence for PM7.

The disk should autoplay, and produce the installation options, just like the commercial version.

If the disk fails to autoplay, the key executable is X:\Autoplay.exe, X: being the CD drive. This will produce the installation screen.

I can get to the autoplay window but when I click on the installation button it will show an hourglass for a couple seconds then just sit there.

When I open the Pagemaker 7.0.2 file in the CD Drive I see the following folders:
_Inst32I
_IsDel
_Setup.dll
_sys1
_user1
_user1.hdr
data1
Data1.hdr
DATA.TAG
Lang
layout
os
Setup (Bitmap Image)
Setup (32 Bit Setup launcher)
Setup (Internet communications Settings)
Setup (configuration Settings)
Setup.lid

Sounds like a faulty or dirty CD. Try copying all the files on the CD to a folder on a local drive (e.g. C:\PM7Installation) and run the installation from there.

The file you want is Setup.exe - 32 Bit Setup launcher by Installshield.

I copied the files on the CD to my hard drive but there was still no installation file. Guess I'm just going to have to purchase a new program. Thanks to everyone for your help!
