3D Game Programming All in One : Second Edition (Problem)

Hi guys,
I know this book I'm talking about is veeerryyyy old,
but I just found this book which I got as a present when I was younger, and I want to get into programming
Right now I'm stuck.
I want to run the Torque scripts but I can't find the demo.exe which should be in the 3D2E/ directory.
There was a mention about this file in the book though, it said that I had to turn on the show
hidden files option in the computer settings.
I did that, but I still can't find the demo.exe file !

If someone knows what I must to do please tell me, I would be very glad of your help !
I'm running windows 7 btw.

thx.

I think the problem is the executable isn't actually named demo.exe, but something else. Maybe Torque.exe? It's been a long time since that book was discussed here.

According to amazon reviews the second edition was the worst because the book's content didn't match whats on the CD that came with the book.

Yes this was indeed the case, it was called tge.exe, strange that it has been changed. I haven't updated the cd or anything. and thank you for responding so quick !
