System requirements for installation
PDF: PDF reader if you dont have it download it from Adobe site.
Zip Files if you dont have a unzip program then google for https://www.tradebit.com there you can get it for free.
If you have problems with downloading, then I suggest using a download manager (Flashget,etc) to avoid timeout by big files.
If you still have download problems then contact us direct through this site to solve the problem.
We are here for long term so we are there also if there is a problem.
