Depends on how smart your install program was. Many will leave newer files in
place and not over-write them. Others blindly over-write.
In either case, the version shown would be 8.0.8.

Can you run a test position to determine your install's status? There must be
some improved play with the newer version, surely.

A 'fc' (DOS binary file comparison) between your current files and those of the
original CD, might be another clue. How do the directory of files between the HD
and the CD compare?
