Couldn't you just download some public domain book from the internet to get used to downloading books from the net and loading onto your Kobo? It seems rather a waste to throw the Kobo in its box just because the CD doesn't have the right files - it's not really the Kobo's fault! You should be able to find the same books as on the disk on any PD site such as Project Gutenberg, Feedbooks or Manybooks. As your friend appears to have succeeded, perhaps he/she could help?
