Installing on a Non-System Drive on Windows

You can use the setup program to install BusinessObjects Enterprise on any local drive. When installing to a directory on the same partition as the operating system, ensure that there is enough room for both the operating system and BusinessObjects Enterprise to expand as updates and new features are added.

If you previously installed another Business Objects product of the same version, the BusinessObjects Enterprise setup program automatically uses that installation's common directory to add new Business Objects products.

To install several Business Objects products on a non-system drive, you must first install BusinessObjects Enterprise. All Business Objects products subsequently installed will use the same drive for shared files.

Note: If a non-CA Technologies version of a BusinessObjects Enterprise is installed, the CA Business Intelligence installation exits.
