X2 - Rapture Install Problem

Hi All Installing X2. After install I can't find Rapture (only find Rapture Le that came with earlier Sonar). I try reinstalling ONLY Rapture. Installer tells me I need to DL DimensionPro1.5 update. I already have DimensionPro1.5 installed (from previous Sonar). I try to reinstall the 1.5 patch - it says it can't find a previous version on my machine ( and yet i can run DimensionPro in stand alone)....why all the questions about Dimension Pro when i am trying to install Rapture? CW don't make their install process easy do they? How do I get Rapture to install? How do I get X2 to recognuse that DimPro 1.5 is already on my machine? Why is Rapture install complaining about my DimPro install?????

    You are almost through the adventure. You should to try your hand at the Expansion Packs and if you fail add your voice to http://forum.cakewalk.com/fb.ashx?m=2683845

    Haven't got any expansion packs for rapture AFAIK and not been offered any free expansion packs either AFAIK. I remember there was a situation when DimPro moved from 1.2 to 1.5 that prevented an installer working....CW obviously didn't learn their lesson from that debacle.

    The free Expansion Packs for Rapture have been around for a long time but unlike DimPro, the packs are not included in the Rapture install process. They are discussed in the sticky threads in the Cakewalk Instruments forum. There is a sticky FAQ about Rapture 1.2.2 Expansion Packs that predates X2. It appears that new Rapture users are still having issues installing the Rapture Expansion Packs.

    I spotted an error with Willy's instructions thus:

    3) -  Copy the contents of the Programs folder into your Rapture Programs folder: 
      
     
    " C:\ProgramData\Cakewalk\Rapture\Programs" (Windows Vista and Windows 7)


    and I had to use IE (rather than Firefox for this post) - when will they fix the forum software so it works with FF?
