As a convenience, the companion CD also includes finished versions of all the Web pages described in the book, supplemental files, such as sample photographs and the graphics files described in Chapter 8, and two ASP.NET utilities.

If the AutoRun feature is not enabled on your system (if a menu doesn t appear when you insert the CD into the drive), run StartCD.exe in the root folder of the companion CD. Installing the sample files on your hard disk requires approximately 450 KB of disk space. If you have trouble running any of the sample files, refer to the text in the book that describes these files.
