Solution for Windows Vista
Problem with Video not Playing:
1. Locate the Drive
which you have inserted the CD into (you can use Windows
Explorer or by double clicking on "My Computer"
2. Double Click on
that Drive
3. Fine the
executable file (stc.exe) and Right click over it.
4. Click the tab on
the top that says "compatibility"
5. Check the box
that asks if the program has worked on an earlier
version of Windows
6. Select XP as the
version.
Please note that you
will need to repeat this step with all the CDs.
Situation:
I insert the CD into my CD-ROM drive and nothing
happens.
Solution:
Your auto-run might be turned off. To start the Course
manually, follow these instructions:
Double-click on My
Computer located on the desktop.
Right-click on the
drive where the CD is inserted. (i.e. D: )
Choose Open from the
list. This should browse the CD.
Double-Click on the
file stc.exe
This should start
the course.
Situation:
The course starts and the License Agreement is displayed
but I can only see half of the screen, there are no
Navigation buttons to click on.
Solution:
Your screen resolution is lower than 1024 X 768 (the
minimum requirement needed to view the course). To set
your resolution properly, follow these instructions:
Right-click on the
Desktop and choose Properties.
Choose the settings
tab (on the top).
Change the
resolution to 1024 X 768 and click OK.
After the new
resolution is set, start the course again. If done
correctly, you should be able view the course in full
scale.
Situation:
I start the Course and I hear the instructor and see
the presentation area but I cant see the instructor in
the top left corner. There is no video.
Solution:
You need to have the right Video Codec. (A video codec
is a group of files needed in order to play digital
video on your computer)
Note:
You should only download and install this Codec if you
cannot see the Video in the top left corner of the
course. (i.e. Vid150 Decompressor not found)
Go to the following
link and download the Indeo 5.x Video Codec and follow
the step-by-step instructions.

Situation:
I start the Course but my computer halts while the
Loading screen appears.
Solution:
You may have run out of disk space. Make sure that you
have at least
150 Megabytes of
free disk space before you start the course. One way to
free disk space would be to use the Disk Cleanup feature
in Windows 98SE or better.
Situation:
I insert the CD and the Intro starts but nothing happens
after the Intro is over.
Solution:
You may have a problem with Auto-loading. You can start
the Course manually by following these instructions:
Double-click on My
Computer located on the desktop.
Right-click on the
drive where the CD is inserted. (i.e. D:)
Choose Open from the
list. This should browse the CD.
Double-Click on the
file STS.exe
This should start
the course.
