Product Information
The MSDN Library contains more than 1.8 GB
of articles, documentation, resource kits, and code samples,
which are simply essential for any serious developer. This
reference is integrated with Visual Studio .NET. The documentation
on the .NET Framework class library, the Win 32® API,
and the specification for Visual C# .NET and Visual Basic
.NET is invaluable.
In Visual Studio .NET, the Dynamic Help window
presents content from the MSDN Library that is relevant
to the code or the task at hand. This permits quick access
to documentation.
System Requirements
-
PC with a Pentium 100 MHz or higher
processor
-
Microsoft Windows 98 or later or Microsoft
Windows NT® 4.0 with Service Pack 6 or later
-
32 MB or RAM minimum
-
450 MB of available hard-disk space
minimum; 1.8 GB for full installation
Software Installation
IMPORTANT: We strongly recommend closing
all open applications and windows and disabling background
applications before installing any of the software.
If you have already installed Visual Studio 6.0 or Visual
Studio .NET, you may want to remove any older versions of
the MSDN Library to increase available disk space. You can
uninstall older versions through the Add/Remove Programs
control panel. Visual Studio .NET installs a reduced version
of the MSDN Library, and you may want to run its installer
to remove the documentation.
- Insert MSDN Library Disc 1 into the CD-ROM drive. The
Setup program should start automatically. If it does not,
double-click SETUP.EXE in the CD-ROM directory.
- Choose the Help collections you wish to install. We
recommend that you install the Help collections you will
frequently use to reduce the need for the MSDN Library
discs.
- Follow the instructions given by the Setup Wizard.
SPECIAL NOTE: Because this reference can consume
up to 1.8 GB of hard-disk space, the Department of Computer
Science & Information Systems is permitted to give students
a copy of the three MSDN Library disks. However, the student
must supply the Site Administrator with three CD-R disks
for copying. This does not apply to any other MSDNAA software
disks.
