+	<answer>
+		<simpara>
+		For most games you do not need to run the installer. Simply copy
+		<ulink url="http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Datafiles">the files listed here</ulink>
+		from your floppy or CD to your hard drive, then start ScummVM. Click
+		on 'Add Game' and select the directory to which you copied the game
+		files.
+		</simpara>
+		<simpara>
+		For some games the files are packed and not directly accessible
+		on the floppy or CD. In such a case you will need to run the original
+		game installer and then copy the files from where they have been
+		installed to the directory in which you want to install the
+		game to play with ScummVM.
