5.0 TROUBLESHOOTING To open the TOC DISK it is usually only necessary to put the disk in your optical drive as your computer should start the disk up automatically. Note: That most TOC Disks will be a DVD so you must have an optical drive that can read DVD disks. However, if the auto-run feature does not work you can open the program by double clicking on the Computer or My Computer Icon then open the appropriate optical drive and then double click on the AutorunPro.EXE icon.

If the program opens but Adobe Reader will not open documents from the links or stops working, first try rebooting your computer. If this does not solve the problem you may need to reinstall Adobe Reader from their website at www.adobe.com. The first time you run the disk or open a document on the disk, you might get a Windows Security message concerning Active Content. If so, just check In the future, do not show this message and click OK. Check the box and click Yes.
