The installation program should start automatically when you insert the CD. If the installer does
not start automatically, click Start on the task bar, choose Run and type the drive letter of your CD-ROM
drive followed by ":\setup.exe" (no quotes). After installation, you don't need the CD to run a course.

the course on another computer?

course?
All courses are launched from the Courses Catalog program. Each time you start a course, your personal key is
required to login. Your course progress will be saved in your PC so that next time you log on you will be
able to continue from where you left off. For this reason, it is recommended that you start and finish a
course from the same PC.
