Using CD-ROM or DVD-ROM Software

The first time you use a software program that comes on a compact disc, it may
load a certain amount of program data onto the hard drive of your workstation.
This enables the program to run more efficiently and quickly in the future.
Read the software manufacturer's instructions that accompany the compact disc
before you attempt to use it. Information to look for includes:
CAUTION: Do not apply labels to CDs or DVDs. The presence of
a label will cause the CD or DVD to become unbalanced and may
cause either inconsistent operation or drive failure.
IMPORTANT: Certain applications or operating system software may
disable the Eject button to prevent accidental damage to the disc. If the Eject
button is disabled by the application software, it will not operate.
NOTE: Some software compact discs take control of the hardware volume
controls. If this occurs, adjust the sound before starting the software.
How much hard disk space will this program require? Do you have
enough disk space?
Will you activate the disc from Windows NT Workstation or from the
system prompt?
Have you connected any special devices this program requires, such as a
joystick?
Do you have the required information (such as serial number) available
to answer any questions during the setup program?
