Software Installation
IMPORTANT: We strongly recommend closing
all open applications and windows and disabling background
applications before installing any of the software.

drive. The Setup program should start automatically. If
it does not, double-click SETUP.EXE in the CD-ROM
directory.

Framework. Windows Component Update is found on Disk 5
of your set.

select features to install, you may want to uncheck "Documentation"
