Documentation Introduction

In general, Software and Drivers are provided in one of two ways.

Compressed ("zipped") format ("filename.ZIP"/"filename.RAR")
Self-executing, compressed ("zipped") format ("filename.EXE)

Compressed format files are "unzipped" by using Software such as WinZip or WinRAR, which are freely available at various Shareware/Freeware sites, such as www.tucows.com, etc (Please Refer to the "Links" page for more information, under the sub-heading "Freeware and Shareware").
These packages are either "Freeware" (available for free) or free for a Trial period ("Trialware").

Self-executing, compressed format files "unzip" themselves, usually also installing themselves, although this is not necessarily true, especially for Drivers.

Now that you understand this very important concept, you can carry on to the topic of your choice.
