2.8.2 Adding Software
To check what software is already installed on your
computer, click Start > All Programs. If a program is listed
in the All Programs menu or the Start menu, the software
is already installed.
Before installing software, check the software's technical
requirements to ensure that it is compatible with your
notebook and that there is enough memory and hard drive
space for installation and operation.
Temporarily disable your notebook's antivirus software
before installing software. See the documentation that
came with the antivirus software for detailed procedure.
Be sure to enable your antivirus software once you have
installed any new software.
Insert the software installation CD into the CD drive and
follow the instructions that came with the software to help
you respond to the prompts on the screen.
If the software installation CD does not automatically run,
click Start > Run. In the dialogue box, type x:\setup.exe
(where x is the letter of your CD drive [usually D or E]).
Then click OK and follow the prompts on your screen.
