Jumpstart Advanced 4th Grade V2.0

The content seems good but my set was defective. I returned and got another set that was also defective. At the end I asked for a refund.

I would have thought that you would not have had to oversee a childs work. Every time a child needed/wanted to change subjects you have to change disk for them. My child hasn't even taken a second look at the series because it doesn't spark her interest. We got custody of this child this last summer and I wanted to give her a chance at catching up on education that she had missed over the last several years. These programs are of no value in doing that. The third grade disk is completely useless. I won't waste my time on trying to get educational instructional software without first seeing it in operation. I feel that I bought something that in no way lives up to the advertisement.

Normally this is a great product. I have purchased K-3 without any problems but this year there is a problem that requires a patch. Calling their helpdesk is somewhat useless since they promise to send you a link but never do. Here is the link I found on my own: [...]. The problem that I experienced was a white screen then if you click a key there is an introduction that has a lady speaking about the cave's history. Then it freezes. This link should solve you problem. Just download and run.

I love Jumpstart in general and bought this hot off the shelf. The fundamentals CD was defective, so Amazon replaced it. The fundamentals CD from the second set had the same defects. My guess is the first batch is messed up and Jumpstart will rectify the problem once enough returns are made.
