At least we are not just imagining things. :)

I don't know why yours and Robert's installations don't remember the disks. 
Mine does.

I have been asking questions in the MESS forum. Perhaps they can be of help. 
What kind of PC are you using, if I may ask? It will help them answer the 
questions if they know what kind of computer it's installed on.
