on the PrimoDVDSetup.exe file to begin the installation process.
After installing PrimoDVD, you may use the Wizard dialogue box to walk through the
steps necessary to record a disc or choose to run PrimoDVD manually for more control
over the various aspects of the recording process. When using PrimoDVD in the
