SolidWorks 2011 Assemblies Bible - Matt Lombard [210]
What's on the DVD
The following sections provide a summary of materials that you'll find on the DVD.
Using the author files folder
I have gathered tutorials, assemblies, and drawings into folders per chapter. Some of the files are starting points for tutorials and some are finished models meant to be examined.
Using the video tutorials folder
I have created a few video tutorials to help you visualize some of the concepts. I hope that these videos will help you learn some of SolidWork's features more quickly.
Using the TechSmith Screen Capture Codec
I have included the TechSmith video codec for AVI (tscc.exe). This software will provide you with lossless image quality, compressed (small) file sizes, and exceptional video quality and speed at all color depths.

Troubleshooting
If you have difficulty installing or using any of the material on the companion DVD, try the following solutions:
• Turn off any antivirus software that you may have running. Installers sometimes mimic virus activity and can make your computer incorrectly believe that it is being infected by a virus. (Be sure to turn the antivirus software back on later.)
• Close all running programs. The more programs you're running, the less memory is available to other programs. Installers also typically update files and programs; if you keep other programs running, installation may not work properly.
• Contact the author. For problems with the content of the DVD, visit my website (www.dezignstuff.com) or blog (www.dezignstuff.com/blog), or send me an e-mail (matt@dezignstuff.com).
• See the ReadMe file. Refer to the ReadMe file located at the root of the DVD for the latest product information at the time of publication.
