I tried that.  Apparently because this is a laptop... The CD drive did not
present itself as a drive in the administrative tools / system management.

How about changing the CD drive to something else and then mapping C: as D:?

I cannot attach the database using enterprise manager. When I try to do 
so,
it opens a find dialog, which I use to find the movie database. As soon as I
select the database, I get an "attach as" down in the bottom of the dialog,
but it is "hardwired" for D:\... Which is a CD drive on my laptop. If I
attempt to change the D:\ to C:\ the "OK" button grays out and I am no
longer allowed to continue.

So little time, so much time wasted trying to get Microsoft stuff to work.
