AIG 2007.exe -- contains all of the dataset files. Installation requires approximately 120 MB of disk space. Installation Location ************************************************* Files MUST be installed on the C Drive in the "MasterADT 2007" folder. The default installation automatically uses this folder. Simply click button on the CD ROM Interface corresponding to the prefered archive, it will install automatically to the correct location. If you change the location, the first time you load any of the projects in ADT, you will be prompted to repath the project. You MUST choose "Repath" when prompted by ADT. If you don't it is likely that the datasets will not function properly. Furthermore, if you do change the location, NONE of the Project Tool Palettes provided will function.
