Hello critter,

Install the update as you normally would install a patch, but when you get to the "select destination location" screen, make sure it is pointing to your USB drive. This will be:

Band-in-a-Box folder:
X:\bb

Drums folder location:
X:\bb

RealTracks folder location:
X:\bb

You will replace the "X" by whatever drive letter your USB hard drive happens to be. Typically E, F, G, or H.

Look under Help -> About

If it says you have the latest version, then you don't need to download and install it.

I noticed that my hard drive has a sticker on it that says UP294 I am assuming that means that the hard drive has up to update 294. When or if I have to update I am not good at attaching files, they usually get lost some where and never go to the files they need to. Help on install would be a great help. Thanks

Go to Help on the top menu and select "About Band In A Box". If you have installed it correctly, you will find (295) after "Version 2010"
