King's Quest Collection Patch Help
Installing the Collection
Insert Disc 1 of the 2006 King's Quest Collection into your CD-Drive. If the AutoRun starts, close it. This is important, as the AutoRun will cause an error later in the install process. Instead, go to the Start Menu and open "My Computer". Open the CD Drive in "My Computer" and double click on "setup.exe" and click "Next to begin the installation.

The default install location for the collection is inside the "Program Files" folder. This is a

"Program Files" folder, such as:
C:\Sierra\King's Quest Collection
to avoid these issues. At the "Install King's Quest Collection(TM) to:" click the Change button.

coping files from the second disc, it will ask you to reinsert the first disc.
