assumed as default and you may not be asked to enter it.

Your computer system must meet some minimum specifications for this installation to function correctly.
You must be using at least: 486 DX Computer System, 8 Megabytes of RAM, 50 Megabytes of Free Hard Disk Space
and a 14.4k or faster Modem.
