Administrator Guide for SAS 9.1.3 Foundation for Microsoft Windows 25
SAS Autoplay launches from the SAS Setup Disk.
The Autoplay menu displays links that you need to continue your installation. The links under
the heading End User Steps include “Verify System Requirements” and “Install SAS
Software.”
While you can proceed by selecting either of these links, “Verify System Requirements” is
recommended. This choice runs a tool that installs system updates if they are needed. If you
begin an installation on a system that does not meet the minimum system requirements, the
installation process will not continue until this tool runs.
Run the System Requirements Wizard
To use this tool, click on “Verify System Requirements” under the End User Steps. If you are
asked to choose a Setup language, select one from the menu in the window.
For descriptions of the remaining steps in the SRW, please see the chapter Using the System
Requirements Wizard on p
age 34.
The System R
equirements Wizard indicates if updates are required, and if so, which products
will be installed. If your computer needs updated software, a reboot may be required.
Run the SAS Setup Wizard
After the System Requirements Wizard runs, you can perform your installation of SAS 9.1.3
Foundation.
1. Return to the SAS Setup AutoPlay menu.
2. Under End User Steps, click on Install SAS 9.1 Foundation.
3. SAS Setup begins with a Welcome screen. Click Next on this screen.
4. Retrieve your SAS Installation Data file.
The SAS Installation Data (SID file) is sent to your site’s SAS Installation Representative by e-
mail. The Customer Key and Order number can be found in the SAS Installation Kit, on the
SAS Order Information sheet.
