EAC & LAME issues

Sorry if this is not the right spot for this post.

I downloaded EAC, and at one point it asked I specify, I believe, where LAME would be located. I didn't have LAME installed yet, and when I tried to pick a folder, an error came up. I then installed a cd at the EAC main screen and all seemed to work fine. Except I didn't click any icons, therefore I didn't really use EAC, and instead tried to install LAME.

I downloaded LAME, in a zip drive, and there was only one thing that seemed like an application. When I opened that, it was this quick black screen that dissapeared immediately. Clearly, I have no idea what I am doing with LAME. Any suggestions? I would really like to try out EAC & LAME to rip cd's and convert them to mp3's because right now, the sound quality of my 192 kbps, 100% VBR mp3 files ripped using MM are pretty garbage.

Chris, thank you for the reply.

Before I do this, should I download LAME first? Also, when prompted to enter a LAME directory during EAC installation, what should I do?

First download Lame.

Then when promted for the lame directory, enter the directory where you downloaded Lame to.

Ok, if you go to the link I provided, all will be clear. I'd just remove whatever you've downloaded so far, I think it will be easier for you in the long run, and use the link above, it will walk you through all the steps.
