Also looking through my finder scope last night, i found it quite difficult to locate the stars close to SCP, so i am thinking that a polar scope with less magnification is going to have a real hard time finding these stars so im going to try this drift method tonight and see how i go. Thats of course if i can get the mount back together

Matt, it seems like your getting things sorted out. I had the same problem locating stars around the pole.
This thread, though not specific to your equipment, the Stellarium images might be of assistance?
Did you say that you now have a polar scope for your CG5?

Quick question:Is there a free software that can be used to polar align a camera over a mount ? (No telescope involved)

Luigi.
Free software. It's possible using live view, if you have it - let me know if you want the details.
