- Insert the disc into your PC, and then follow the instructions on your screen. You might be asked for an admin password.
- If install doesn’t start automatically, check your AutoPlay settings.
- In the search box on the taskbar, type AutoPlay settings and select it from the results.
- Make sure AutoPlay is On.
- You can also choose AutoPlay defaults for removable drives and memory cards.
From the internet
