When installation is not successful – Q&A

Q1 Does your computer meet the system requirements?

A1 Check the system requirements for the installation by clicking “CONNECT Player

Readme” in the CONNECT Player Main Menu window.

Q2 Were you logged on as an “Administrator,” and did you close all

running software programs before beginning the installation?

A2 Log on as an “Administrator.”

Close all running software programs, including background programs such as virus-

protection software.

Q3 Did you disable any virus-protection software installed on your

computer?

A3 Disable any virus-protection software because such software often demands a large

portion of the computer’s resources.

Q4 Is there enough free space on the hard disk of your computer?

A4 There must be at least 200 MB of free space on the hard disk of your computer. If there

is not, delete any unnecessary ﬁles from your computer to free up more space.

Q5 The set-up program does not start automatically.

A5 If the set-up program does not start automatically when you insert the CD-ROM, click

“Start” on the Windows taskbar, click “My Computer,” and then double-click the optical

disc drive icon to start the program.

Q6 Is the progress bar in the installation window moving, and the access

lamp of the CD drive ﬂashing?

A6 When the bar is moving and the lamp is ﬂashing, the installation is still in progress.

Please wait for the installation to ﬁnish.
