Installing to Hard Disk or Network

1. Create a folder on your hard drive or network where you will put the files.
2. Open the media (CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, etc.) for this product in your file browser.
3. There are two items you need to copy from this product into the folder you just created. They are:
   • The main HTML file
     this is usually named "Start.htm" or "Begin.htm"
   • The "data" folder
     which contains all the support files for this product
   You do not need to copy over any other files.
4. Once the files are finished copying, you may want to create a shortcut on your desktop. Click once on the main HTML file on your hard drive or network to select it, then:
