Missing PSpice libraries Discrete.lib and Transistor.lib in OrCAD PCB Designer Lite 16.6 package!

I have installed OrCAD PCB Designer Lite 16.6 on my PC with Windows 7 and the Discrete.olb and Transistor.olb symbols for Capture CIS were included, but NOT the PSpice equivalent *.lib models. Why are they missing and where can I find them?

Also, how do I link the symbol to the PSpice models in OrCAD Lite 16.6?

Best regards,

The PSpice libraries reside in the <inst_dir>/tools/pspice/library folder and are part of the standard release. Please check the location to verify this.

Yes, I have checked the pspice/library folder as well as the capture/library folder.
In the pspice/library folder I am missing the discrete.lib and the transistor.lib models. At the same time the eval.lib and evalp.lib models are present in the pspice/library,
but no corrosponding eval.olb symbol file in the capture/library folder and several other strange misalignments of files. Perhaps some symbol files are named differently than the PSpice model files or otherwise my lite installation somehow is not complete or was corrupted during the installation.
In any case, it would be a big help, if somebody can provide me with at least the discrete and transistor symbol (*.olb) and corrosponding pspice model (*.lib) files and perhaps also other files, like amplifier, breakout and/or eval?
I would be much obliged for any help with the files!
