when I try to download step 1 I get a message saying I have to buy winZip in order to view my download. Is there anyway around this? Thanks...if you can't tell I'm not really computer savy

Yea you need an unzipping program to unzip the compressed files. Any winzip, winrar, filzip, etc would work. Go to download.com and type winzip and you'll get a program list that you can download.

Thank..but I'm slow when it comes to computers: I went to the website you suggested, downloaded a winzip program (evaluation version), but now what, when I download the free test, click on evaluation version, nothing happens...what did I do wrong...please help 😕

Once you install winzip just make sure that there's an actual winzip program that works. There may be an option on the program to browse files you want to unzip. If not, then drag the nbme file onto winzip and see if it works. You should then see another folder with nbme stuff in it and there's a setup program that you need to run to install that. Just play around with this and you will figure it out, its not that hard.
