Unusually, this product insists on copying itself completely to your hard drive, so make sure you have 3GB free. I don't know why you can't just run it from the DVD with just a few files copied to the computer, but to be honest I prefer it this way, as there's no distracting noise from the disc drive when running it. If you have Vista, it installs an icon on the left of the taskbar, which opens up the menu with one click. If you have Vista like I do, then firstly my commiserations, and secondly everything said in this paragraph will help you to get back the irritating amount of time you lose every time you have to sit through Vista loading.
This is a fully windows embracing product, unlike others I have seen, meaning that not only can you minimise it and do other things as the need arises, but you can have more than one module open at once. It is extremely easy to use, and - of course - has everything you need to know, including the hazard perception tests and show me tell me.
But if only it was that simple. The product is fairly insistent that you register with them, and after spending some time with this product I now know why. I was doing a mock theory test and the window kept flickering annoyingly. Couple that with the text size that you can't seem to enlarge, and it started to give me a headache. Then, 27 questions into the 50 question test a box appeared to tell me the program had stopped working. And now I don't know whether I got the right answers or not, so it did me more harm than good. I had to start again, but with the window constantly flickering I couldn't stand to look at it anymore. I have two choices now - contact customer support or go back to my old driving test software that works and doesn't try and influence me into subscribing to its own driving lessons. Guess which one I'll do.
