Steve,

Select the course you want, then:
1. double click on the course
2. select "save"
3. Direct it to where you want the course saved (e.g., desktop)
4. click on "save" and it will download.

Same process with player files in the utilities area.

Note: You need to download courses one at a time unless you can get someone to send you courses on a media like DVD or CD.

Golfdoc, do you need any assistance with the Course Manager and installing new courses and libraries?

Indy;
Yes, I need help. After I download the course to desktop, I try and extract it to PGA 2000 courses however I can't seem to find the downloaded course. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Also, if there are pga players we can download too that would also be great. Again, thanks in advance

You can find PGA/LPGA players in the Utilities section. DL and unzip the player file and put it directly into your PGA->Players file. In case you need to find it, go My Computer->Local Disk (C or whatever name you have it installed on)->Sierra->PGA(game type, mine is PGACGCE)->players. A players folder will appear in your "available players" when you start a game. You can open it and select individuals or move the entire folder into the "selected players" side.

Now, for installing. First, DL and unzip your selected courses/libes onto your desktop. As Dar said, dl them 1 at a time but you can install a group together.

1. Open your Course Manager (the file cabinet icon.) Depending on how many courses you have installed, this could take a minute or two.
2. In the middle, click on "Install."
3. On the left, double-click on the "C:\"
4. DblClick on the "documents and settings" folder
5. DblClick on your administrator "NAME" folder (it's the bottom one on my menu)
6. DblClick on "desktop"

Your available courses/libes for installation should now appear in the bottom left window.
7. Highlight individual course/libe or hold down CTRL+ L click and drag to highlight all of them. It's best to install libes first so as you're installing the courses, you're not constantly getting them "missing library" screen. Note this though; if you've overlooked a libe it'll let you know here.
8. Close and exit.
