Introduction

The PC Access for Windows® Disk 1 contains the User Authorization and configuration files you need to run PC Access on your computer. If your computer does not have a 3.5" disk drive, you may be able to install your User Authorization by choosing one of the alternate installation methods. Before you choose an alternate installation method, you need access to both a Windows computer with a 3.5" disk drive and your computer without a 3.5" disk drive. For more information, see: Installation Methods.
