  • 114047 LG 1.25 How to install from a Download

        1. Downloadthe program from the website providing the program.
        2. Open thedownload folder.
        3. If the file you downloaded is anexecutable file, double-click the file icon to start the setup process. If the downloaded file is compressed (e.g. .zip), you must extract the file’s contents before setup can begin. Fortunately, this function is built into most versions of Windows.
        4. Once the files are extracted, double-click the setup to install.

      1. Some of the new computers may no longer have a disc drive. If your computer does not have a disc drive try installing what is on the CD from the Internet. Computer drivers, software for hardware devices, and some games and other programs are available for downloaded and can be installed from a download.

        If the program is not available for download copy the contents all of the CD or DVD to another drive on another computer. For example, you could copy the contents of the disc to a USB flash drive and then install the program from the USB flash drive.

  • 114047 LG 1.23 No Autorun Feature

      1. OpenMy Computer.
      2. Within the My Computer window, open thedrive that contains the installation files. For example, if the files are on the CD-ROM drive, open the D: drive or letter of your CD-ROM drive.
      3. Within the drive that contains your files, locate either theexecutable setup (i.e. “setup.exe”) or install  Double-clicking on this file starts the installation process. If you see multiple setup or install files, try to locate an executable file or double-click each of the setup or install files until you find the file that starts the installation. Many times the icons associated with the installation files have the same name.

      This unit standard does not replace any other unit standard and is not replaced by any other unit standard. 

      PURPOSE OF THE UNIT STANDARD 

      This unit standard is intended:

      ·  To provide proficient knowledge of the areas covered

      ·  For those working in, or entering the workplace in the area of Data Communications & Networking 

      People credited with this unit standard are able to:

      ·  Plan the installation of system software for a multi-user networked operating system

      ·  Install a multi-user networked operating system

      ·  Configure a multi-user networked operating system

      ·  Test the installation and configuration of a multi-user networked operating system

      ·  Document the installation of multi-user networked operating system 
      The performance of all elements is to a standard that allows for further learning in this area. 

      LEARNING ASSUMED TO BE IN PLACE AND RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNING 

      The credit value of this unit is based on a person having prior knowledge and skills to:

      ·  Describe data communications

      ·  Describe types of computer systems and associated hardware configurations

      ·  Apply problem solving strategies
