[UW-GIS-L] iso download issues

[Jesse Ayers]

If you are having trouble with the large .iso files, download the smaller
.gi files into some directory and try this:

1. Open a command line (start>run>cmd)
2. Switch to the directory where your .gi files are located, then type
3. copy /b "ArcGIS_Desktop_93 (1_0).gi" + "ArcGIS_Desktop_93 (1_1).gi"
ArcGIS_93_DVD.iso
4. Mount or burn the new .iso file then install....
