im trying to work out how you install songs into stepmania that came with powerpack 2008. when my daughter tries to play it, it says no songs installed but doesnt mention how to install songs.... anyone help me out here

I havn't tried it yet (as it not my kind of game ), but I read you need to download the songs into stepmania. Check if there's hidden .stepmania folder or you might check the installation path of syepmania and move the song there.
