I dont remember exactly what i did but i remember basicly what i did. I think the first instinct is to load the book again but it tells you book allready loaded. What i did was load another book which can be off cd if you want then close it and reload the original book. after this it took and rememberd the book. i dont remember if I had to close the book to load another or just hit load, play around with it should work.
