- Get the License Configuration File

For more information on purchasing SAS, go to http://webstore.cites.uiuc.edu
Note: SAS 9.1.x uses a text file form of license file -- it is neither a .sas nor a .sss file.
- Remove older versions of SAS
Version 9.1.3 will upgrade earlier versions of 9.1 but you must remove SAS 9.0 with Add/Remove Software to install 9.1 (though earlier versions such as 8.2 can be left on if you really desire). SAS/ODBC and SAS Viewer should also be replaced if you use these products and the new versions installed (see Client Side Components Disk 1). To remove SAS: Go to Start - Settings - Control Panel. In the Control Panel, click on Add/Remove programs. Then click on all the relevant SAS software and tell it to remove it.
- Put in SAS Setup Disk 1
- The Setup window should should automatically come up unless you have disabled the autoplay feature in which case you should open the cd and choose Autoplay.
- It will ask you to choose the language. Select English and click OK.
- The SAS Software Navigator will start up and is a web style installation program. If the screen below doesn't show up, select SAS 9.1 Foundation and scroll down to this window:
- Select "Verify System Requirements" and accept the defaults, rebooting if requested.
Note: If rebooting freezes the machine, power down and then if the program does not restart, open the cd and run "setup.exe". You can allow SAS to use your password or not (if not, you will have to do the logon on reboot yourself). The install program should start back up on it's own, if not, go to the cd and choose "setup.exe" and run it.
- Return to the SAS 9.1 Foundation Screen as above
- Select 3 on the right side to Install SAS 9.1 Foundation.
