After purchasing the cd, I realized that my new laptop has no cd drive. Can I copy the cd onto a thumb drive or any suggestions so I don't pay twice?

Sure can and that is one of the easies ways to install where you don't have a CD drive. Bob Meighan, VP TurboTax

Yes you can, you can copy the CD install file to USB or to FTP server or sky drive than download to your laptop and install it.

This does use a cd key, so if you're buying a used copy, be sure it comes with it, however it would be safest to buy new as the program might check the cd key online and if it shows another computer is using the same key it won't work

Does anyone have any recommendations for purchasing an external CD/DVD drive? Will any one do?

Don't know if this will help, but I put the DVD in a different computer, transferred the files to a USB drive, then put it on my laptop that doesn't have a cd/dvd drive.. worked for me..

No, the laptop does not have a CD /DVD drive. You are able to connect an external one to the laptop, if that helps.

Hey Joshua, You would have to use an external USB CD drive, the unit does not have built in drivers.

No, you just buy either Pc or MAC. (the price is the same). I just downloaded it using Firefox as Safari didn't work well. I also don't have a CD drive anymore, but this worked just fine. Hope this helps.

My lap top did not come with a disk. The Windows operating system already came pre installed on the laptop. Are you possibly looking for a product key for Microsoft Office? Because that is not included. However, if the computer is asking for a product key for the OS, you may have gotten a defective system.

There is no disc drive in this model. We are going to use an external disc drive if we absolutely need one.

You can use a exterior cd drive through the usb port, and that will work just the same as if you had the cd in your laptop or desktop.

Drive CD comes with the card. I put it in a computer running Linux Mint, and Linux found the driver immediately, I didn't have to do anything. My guess is that you, too, will just "plug and play".... Let me know

:-( Couldn't say, I'm located in a country which has no access to downloads; I bought the CD, and I own a laptop only. Sorry :-(

You can * burn it to a disc * copy it to a jump/usb drive * if your computers are networked you can access it from your laptop * failing the above, you can download it to your laptop

There is no CD-ROM included with this laptop. All software and drivers need to be downloaded from the internet or USB port.
