Installation Types
The DVD offers three installation choices:

Typical

The Typical installation type installs the program files, articles, and images on your hard drive. While running Britannica, you will need a Data Disc in your drive to view some of the content. This is the default installation type.

Full

The Full installation type installs the program and all data files on your hard drive. A Full installation allows you to run Britannica without using any Data Discs after installation.

Custom

The Custom installation type allows you to choose which components you would like to install. By default, only the Application and Images are selected for installation. You can choose which components will be installed on your hard drive. If you choose all of the components, you will not need the Data Disc(s) while using Britannica. Choose as many or as few components as you like, but be sure to check beforehand to make sure you have sufficient hard-drive space before continuing.

Note: More or less hard-drive space may be required depending on your particular system and hard drive. Be sure to leave extra free space after the Britannica installation.

Starting the Program

Windows: The Britannica installation program installs the program and program icons in a Program Files\\Britannica 12.0\\ directory, unless you choose another location. You can start Britannica by opening the Start menu and choosing Programs > Britannica 12.0 then clicking the Encyclopaedia Britannica DVD icon to start the program. In addition, a Britannica shortcut icon is provided on your Windows Desktop; double-click it to run the program.

Macintosh: Double-click the Britannica program icon on your Desktop. Or, double-click on your hard drive, then click Applications > Britannica 12.0 (double-click the Britannica icon to start the program).

Performance Issues when Virus Scanners is Running

If your system has a virus scanner running in the background, the performance of the Britannica program may be severely degraded. This is due to the 'Active Scan' feature of anti-virus attempting to read Britannica's compressed data files at the same time as the Britannica program itself. In most cases, disabling this feature will alleviate the performance issues. However, some customers may need to completely disable the virus scanner whenever the Britannica program is in use. For more information on this issue, please consult our Technical Support Web Site (http://support.britannica.com/).
