Can't find content/loops and songs in Explorer -ACID Product Family

Subject:Can't find content/loops and songs in Explorer Posted by: GabrielRocco Date:12/20/2010 10:19:01 PM II just installed Acid Home Studio 8. The basic program is running fine, but I can't find any content folders in the explorer window, no loops or songs or any media files. The download went smoothly and I followed all the prompts using the recommended folders etc. - but when I open the Sony folder in my Program Files, there is no content. Can anyone tell me where the installation might have put the media files? There is a content folder on the installation DVD, I just can't find where it put them on my hard drive. Help?

Maybe even emphasize it so newbies like me would know something so essential. Anyway, thanks again, I appreciate you taking the time to inform me.
