Hi ,                                                                                                                                                                                                       i am a student of mechanical engineering and have keen interest in learning autocad. i have registered myself in the Education community and activated my account but while downloading the AUOTOCAD 2010 SOFTWARE  i am facing a problem. The steps to download and activate are mentioned but where do i execute them. I  would be very thankful if anyone can guide me with it.
