INSTALLATION

1. Create a new folder on your local hard drive. Give this folder a suitable name (e.g. 'Arnega').
2. Unzip the contents of Arnega.zip [2.04 Mb] as downloaded from this website, or copy the entire contents of the Arnega folder, as found on the distribution CD-Rom, to the new folder. Be sure to 'Use folder names' when unzipping.
3. Create a shortcut to the executable program file Arnega.exe using standard Windows techniques. (Note: It is not necessary to create a shortcut to Edit.exe, as the main Arnega program already contains a button to access the Editor).

FILES AND FOLDERS

Three files are critical for Arnega to run, and they must all be in the same folder:

• Arnega.exe - Main program
• Editor.exe - Program to create and edit Subjects and Topics
• Default.jpg - Default picture file

The default picture file default.jpg MUST be present in the same folder as Arnega.exe. Note that this does not have to be the picture file as supplied: it can be any .jpg file. The point is that it must be a .jpg file, and it must be in the correct folder.

If you extracted the files in Arnega.zip correctly, the following sub-folders will be found below the main 'Arnega' folder on your local hard drive (see the diagram alongside):

Mediafiles - Contains picture files (*.jpg and *.bmp) and text files (*.txt) for use with ALL Subjects and Topics.

Setup - Contains various files and folders needed to register and customise Arnega.

Subjects - Contains all the separate Subject sub-folders, and within them the Topics (text files containing the actual questions and answers).

Other sub-folders and files will automatically be created when Arnega is run for the first time, and the number of Subjects, Topics and Mediafiles will grow as the program gets used. Please DO NOT change the location or contents of these files and folders manually: most of the required manipulation can be done from within the Arnega program.
