1. It sounds like you are trying to install the wrong version of Streets
& Trips. MS CE is used for handheld devices like PocketPC. In any case,
here's a link to that product's tech support page:

http://www.microsoft.com/streets/support.mspx

2. Very often with home-built or locally built computers the front USB
ports will not be connected to the motherboard. You would need to open
the computer and look. If this is an OEM machine made by one of the big
mftrs. like Dell, HP, etc. then call their tech support because
certainly when you buy one of those machines all the USB ports are
connected and should be working.

not streets and trips.

-Rt click on >My Computer >Manage >Disk Management. You may
find the USB drive there. Just assign it a drive letter
