<P>This tutorial will guide you step-by-step in the process of how to copy the Blue Letter Bible CD to your hard drive. There are two main advantages for having the Blue Letter Bible run from your hard drive: (1) It will keep your CD-ROM drive available for other software CD-ROMs or music, (2) the Blue Letter Bible will run quicker from your hard drive than from a CD-ROM drive. The following instructions apply to computers running the Microsoft Windows operating system.</P>

<P><B>1.</B> Before copying the BLB CD onto your hard drive, it is necessary that you have enough space on your hard drive. You need to have about 700MB of available hard disk space. To determine how much space you have available on your hard drive follow these steps: Go the Desktop and Double Click on "My Computer."

<P><B>3.</B> When the hard drive "Properties" window appears you will notice that it shows the hard drive's capacity (including used and available space) in the form of text and in the form of a pie chart. Find the "Free space" section and determine whether there is AT LEAST 700MB available (1GB = 1024MB; 1MB = 1024KB; 1KB = 1024 bytes). If you have the available space then advance to the next step. If you do not have the available space then do not proceed with this tutorial, but continue to run the BLB CD from the CD-ROM drive.

<P style="text-indent:15px;"><em><b>Note to previous users:</b></em> Make sure you don't just copy the contents of the new BLB folder into any pre-existing folder on your hard drive. The 'BLB' folder must be copied as indicated in the following images regardless of what folder on your hard drive you copy it into. This new version of the BLB CD depends heavily on the BLB folder name.

<P><B>10.</B> Once all of the files have been copied to the hard drive, right click on the file called "Setup.exe" (it might show up as just "Setup" without the extension if your computer is configured not to view filename extensions). When the drop-down menu appears after right clicking "Setup.exe," click on "Send <U>T</U>o" then click on "Desktop (create shortcut)." By doing this you are making a shortcut (or link) to the BLB CD from your Desktop so that it is easily accessible.
