Installation Details

• The first Select Components window offers the following options:
Install Handbook on Local Drive. Choose this option if you wish to install all files onto your hard drive.

Run Handbook from CD-ROM. Choose this option if you need to conserve hard disk space. The Handbook files will not be installed, and will only be accessible via your CD-ROM. (This option will appear only if you are installing from CD ROM.)

Modify Settings. Choose this option if you are only modifying your setup (for example, if you are only changing your word processor or browser).



• All files will be installed by default into the following directory:
C:\ProgramFiles\Mayfield\TechBook\Handbook You are free to change this path during installation. You can change the drive and root directory, but we suggest "Mayfield\Techbook\Handbook" as the last portion of your path.
• The next Select Components window will appear only if you have both Microsoft Word and Corel WordPerfect installed on your computer. The window offers the following options:
Microsoft Word Template. Check this box if you will be using Microsoft Word.

WordPerfect Template. Check this box if you will be using Corel WordPerfect.


You may choose to install the Handbook software for either or both of these word processors.
• The next window will appear only if you have both Microsoft Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator installed on your computer. The window offers the following options:
Microsoft Internet Explorer
Netscape Navigator

Choose the one browser you wish to use with the Handbook.

• The next option will appear only if you are running Windows 3.1 and you chose WordPerfect as your word processor. This window asks you to locate the directory for the WordPerfect Additional Objects Template. It is very important that this file be installed in its proper location. The default path for a standard WordPerfect installation is:
C:\WPoffice\WPwin\WPdocs\Template
