Computer, internet connection, CD or DVD

How to install from a CD or DVD


1. Many software titles, games, and utilities have an AutoPlay feature. This feature
automatically starts a setup screen for the software when the CD or DVD is
inserted. If your program contains this feature, follow the steps that appear after
inserting the disc into the computer.
2. If AutoPlay is disabled on your computer or unavailable on the software disc,
follow these steps.
3. Open My Computer.
4. In the My Computer window, open the drive that contains the installation files.
For example, if the files are on the CD-ROM drive, open the D: drive or letter of
your CD-ROM drive.
5. In the drive that contains your files, locate either the executable setup (i.e.,
"setup.exe") or install file. Double-clicking this file starts the installation process.
If there are multiple setup or install files, locate the executable file or double-click
each setup or install file until you find the file that starts the installation.
6. Many times the icons associated with the installation files have the same name.

Install a CD on a computer with no disc drive


7. Many new computers no longer have disc drives. If your computer does not have
a disc drive, try finding the software online. Computer drivers, software for
hardware devices, games, and other programs are available for download and
can be installed from a download. If you have the product key, it doesn't matter
where you get the program.
8. If the program is not available for download, copy all the CD or DVD contents to
another drive on another computer. For example, you could copy the contents of
the disc to a USB flash drive and then install the program from the USB flash
drive.
