- 1. Installing EnterNet 300 for Windows
- ======================================
-
- 1.1 Overview
- ------------
- If you received EnterNet 300 as a component of a suite of applica-
- tions, follow the installation instructions provided therein. If you
- are installing EnterNet 300 as a stand-alone application, follow the
- instructions below.
-
- EnterNet 300 is distributed in three formats:
- (i) On CD-ROM.
- (ii) As a self-extracting executable (typically ENTERNET300.EXE).
- (iii) As a "zip" archive (typically ENTERNET300.ZIP). Please refer
- to the appropriate paragraph below, basing your choice on your
- distribution format.
-
- 1.2 Installing from a CD
- ------------------------
- If you are installing EnterNet 300 from a CD, insert the EnterNet 300
- CD into your CD-ROM drive. If after 30 seconds the EnterNet 300
- installer has not automatically started, use Windows Explorer to
- navigate to the root directory of the EnterNet 300 CD, and double-
- click the file named SETUP.EXE. Follow the on-screen instructions.
-
- For additional information, see "Installation Options" below.
-
- 1.3 Installing from a Self-Extracting Executable
- ------------------------------------------------
- If you received EnterNet 300 electronically, and the file you
- received has an "EXE" extension (like ENTERNET300.EXE), simply
- double-click on the file and follow the on-screen instructions.
-
- For additional information, see "Installation Options" below.
-
- 1.4 Installing from a "zip" Archive
- -----------------------------------
- If you are installing EnterNet 300 from a "zip" archive file (like
- ENTERNET300.ZIP), create a temporary folder on your computer's hard
- drive and extract all the files from the EnterNet 300 zip archive to
- the temporary folder. Use Windows Explorer to navigate to the temp-
- orary folder, then double-click the file named SETUP.EXE. Follow the
- on-screen instructions. After you have successfully installed
- EnterNet 300, you may delete the temporary folder and its contents.
-
- For additional information, see "Installation Options" below.
-
- 1.5 Installing on Windows NT & Windows 2000 Systems
- ---------------------------------------------------
- If you are installing EnterNet 300 on a Windows NT or Windows 2000
- computer, you must install it while logged onto a Windows user
- account that possesses Administrator privileges. EnterNet 300 is
- installed as a Service, and is available to user accounts that do
- not have Administrator privileges.
-
- 1.6 Installation Options
- ------------------------
- When you launch the EnterNet 300 installer, you will be asked to
- select between a "Quick Install" and a "Step-By-Step install". If you
- select the "Quick Install", the EnterNet 300 default installation
- values are selected. You are then prompted to re-boot your system.
- If you select the "Step-By-Step Install", you are prompted:
-
- 1. To install the EnterNet 300 icon on your desktop (the
- default value is "Yes").
- 2. To activate EnterNet 300 Dial-on-Demand feature (the
- default value is "No").
- 3. To accept the default installation folder or select another hard
- drive folder where you want to install EnterNet 300.
