Lets update this shall we.
THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE DIFFERENT FROM WHAT HAS BEEN POSTED ELSEWHERE. IT LOOKS SIMILAR BUT ITS NOT.
I know its hard campers but READ through these instructions before you try to install this. I redid this and am posting it up with some simpler instructions for those that arent as savvy with computers. This manual is well worth it.

READ THESE TO THE BOTTOM BEFORE YOU BEGIN FOR SOME YOU GUYS THIS WILL BE HARD.... ITS A GUY THING LIKE DIRECTIONS
This is a bit confusing to a lot of you and this will simplify it. Most of you are getting lost in the fact that this doesnt want to work when installing from your desktop.
Download the file. Here it is in one zipped file and the name has obviously been changed to 2003 Manual.
You will need to unrar or unzip this file. It will unrar to a folder named 2003 Manual.
You will need to burn the contents of this folder (not the folder itself) ie (content, data, stock, tools, data1, data1.hdr etc) straight to a cd. Not into a folder. Afterwards when the cd is opened you will see exactly 13 files/folders.
Create a folder on your C:\ drive and name it TSO just as you see it. Now you see C:\TSO
Open the cd and run the setup.exe file and start the install. When it asks where to install choose this TSO folder. Install it there. Dont install adobe 5. (Install a newer version of Adobe Acrobat Reader.) Do install the svg 2.0 viewer. Do not start the program yet.
Go to my computer or computer and open to see what the drive letter is for your cd rom. Mine is D:/ and most likely yours will be too. Make note of that.
Now go to the folder c:/TSO that you created and installed the program to. Open and find the tsobrowser.ini file. This file will be a document with a little sprocket on it. Open it. It should open in a text document for editting. The fourth line down is all that needs to be editted. This is probably what it looks like:
03Must=1~1~C:\TSO\~stock\home.htm~2003 Mustang~October 2002
We need to change where the program is looking for the files. We dont want it to look in a folder we want it to look on a drive. Change the drive location to what ever your cd drive is. Mine is D:/ Omit any folder as we are going straight to the drive. The program will find what it needs from there. Remove the TSO and change the drive location just as you see mine below. Save it. Close and run the "Service Information" icon on your desktop.
03Must=1~1~D:\~stock\home.htm~2003 Mustang~October 2002
The CD must be in your drive to run this program.
Note: if you have previously installed this from say the desktop you may need something like "windows manager" to clean out your registry as the previous installation has likely installed registry keys linking to this program. Try to install it first then do this if it fails.
