At least 1.4 GB of free hard drive space are required to install the game. An additional 500 MB of free
space is recommended for saved games and the swap-file.
Installation
Insert CD 1 into the CD-ROM drive. The Autorun menu will show up on the screen.
Note: If your CD-ROM Autoplay feature is switched off on your computer, the Autorun menu will not
appear. In that case, run the Autorun.exe program from the CD 1 root directory.
To install the game, follow the instructions on your screen. The Autorun program will prompt you to
choose a directory to install the game (default destination directory is C:\Program Files\Nival
Interactive\Etherlords). After copying the game files, the program will check your DirectX version. If
your DirectX version is older than 7.0, Autorun will offer to update it (you can also choose to install
DirectX manually from the \DirectX directory on CD 2).
