<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial> I have been happy with TEX Live
on a CD that I bought in 1999, but must now switch to pdfLatex. I
therefore bought the 2008 TEX Collection DVD (invoice #20091188) but
my Dell system can't read it, even though I have an appropriate DVD
decoder. I am working under Windows XP and now intend to download
protext.exe from CTAN. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial> </FONT><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial> Please advise me whether to
<EM>uninstall</EM> all existing TEX Live software before installing
protext.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial> I would also be very grateful if
you would reassure me that protext includes packages: </FONT><FONT size=2
face=Arial>latexsym, </FONT><FONT size=2 face=Arial>amsmath, </FONT><FONT size=2
face=Arial>a4, </FONT><FONT size=2 face=Arial>graphicx, etc.</FONT></DIV>
