In order to obtain authorization to download software, your instructor must provide your name and student number and SIUE email address to Dr. Douglas Bock, for he is the administrator for this process. When your instructor tells you that you have been authorized to download software from the MSDNAA site, you should receive an email message from system_mail@e-academy.com giving you a username and password.
1. Create a new, empty folder on your computer to store the software taht you arer going to download, e.g. c:\temp\downloads.

3. Choose Log In on the left side of screen.
4. After your instructor approved your use of this site to be able to download software, you should have received an email message from system_mail@e-academy.com giving you a username and password. Use the information to log in and click the "Log Me In!" link.
5. Click on Software.

For some products, Microsoft will email your serial number/product Key. You will not be able to install the software without this Serial Number. Once you have the serial number, scroll down, and click on either Dial-Up Users, Click Here for Additional Instructions, or Download Software.
13. You will be prompted to Open, Save, Cancel, or More Info. Choose the "Save" button.

18. After the software unpacks, you are required to click the "Launch Install" button.
19. If the setup does not start automatically, double-click on the setup.exe file located in the folder you used to unpack in step # 16. When you install the software, follow the prompts and choose a custom installation so you can select the “Run All From My Computer” option as you will not have a disk to restore or repair the software. If the download is listed as an ISO type, double-click on the .iso file to create a CD. You will need a CD drive capable of burning CD's to do this.
If you have problems with your download or install, contact the administrator, Dr. Douglas Bock, by email at dbock@siue.edu.
