Installing the CD contents to Your Computer
While the Treasures CD runs well from the CD itself, at the request of users, we have included a utility that will copy the contents of the Chinese Treasures CD to the computer's hard drive, should you so desire. The advantage of this is that the program runs considerably faster and you no longer have to carry a CD with you.
Before running the installation utility, please be advised of the following:
- The install will take between 5 and 20 minutes, depending upon the speed our your computer and its disk drive.
- The program will copy about 750 megs of information onto your hard drive (into the folder of your choosing.)
- If you already have a directory entitled Program Files/DBS/Treasures 3.0 or Program Files/DBS/Treasures 3.0
or Program Files/DBS/CT2007, you should delete that directory manually.
- A shortcut will be created on your desktop called CT5.0.'
- Please ensure the CD is both clean and free from scratches before running the program.
