I got the instructional DVDs yesterday and there is a note that says: "For best performance, you should move the files from the DVDs to your hard drive." [That should say "copy" not "move" but that shouldn't be an issue for most people.]
But there are no instructions for this, so here's a suggestion (note that some things will be slightly different between Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7):
- Using Windows Explorer, create a folder under MyDocuments called Logos Video Tutorials (or whatever you want to call it), and click on that folder (there should be nothing there).
- Open a second instance of Windows Explorer and navigate to your DVD, and make sure you can see both instances of Explorer (side by side, or top/bottom).
- From the DVD click and drag Learn_to_Use_Greek or Learn_to_Use_Hebrew from the DVD window to the MyDocuments/Logos Video Tutorials/ window. This will copy all the files and internal file structure to your hard drive. Note that this can take some time (15-30 min., or more), depending on your machine.
- Then open the folders you just created and right click on the file: Learn_to_Use_Greek.html or Learn_to_Use_Hebrew.html and select "Create Shortcut"
- Click and drag that shortcut to your desktop for easy access to the files.
- If you wish you can rename the shortcuts on your desktop by right clicking and selecting Rename. I called one Greek Tutorials and the other Hebrew Tutorials. (Putting the word Greek or Hebrew first makes it easier for me to quickly distinguish the shortcuts.)
- You could also change the icon for the shortcuts, if you want by right clicking and selecting Properties. Then from the Shortcut tab select Change Icon. (You can use the Logos program icon by browsing to your user files/appdata/local/Logos4 and clicking the Logos4.exe program.) NOTE: it would be nice if Logos included a Logos4 icon on the DVD, but it doesn't--maybe in the future.
Hope this helps. If I missed a step, or if someone else has a better idea, let us know.
EDIT: finished my sentence in step 2.
