Tutorial 1, ISM3004: How to successfully install and run a program for microsoft

How to Successfully Install and Run a program for Microsoft
by: Courtney Jeffries, ISM3004

Step 1:
Before installing a program onto your computer there are a few basic things you need to make sure of. You first need to check to see if the computer matches the requirements that go along with the program you are trying to install. (Also something to remember is to close all other windows or programs you may already have opened on your computer, this will allow the new program to install in a more timely manner.)

Step 2:
Once the disk has been inserted into your computer, most software will automatically prompt to a setup screen. If this is the case, you will then click the "run" button to start the installation process.


If you do not immediately see the setup screen however, the disk may not include this feature, in which case you would:

  1. Click on "START" in the bottom left corner of the screen and open My Computer.
  2. Once in the my computer window, open the installation files drive. This drive will contain all your files.
  3. You will then see either a setup or install file. (If there is more than one file, look for the application file or check each until you find the one that begins with installation.) Double click on your file and the installation process of your program will begin.
