Hi Ben,

Sorry can't help with a CD but IIRC... if you have the FMS 5.5 CD it  
should have the Windows and Mac version on it.

But you really need FileMaker Unlimited for the PHP work so you could  
just run with the files open using FMU without the server. Only thing  
you'll miss will be the auto backups and maybe a bit of stability of  
FMU crashes. As it will only be a short term thing until your PC is  
back up and running it probably would be a reasonable interim solution.

Regards

Andrew
