Notes before starting • Time durations are given as an approximate reference only • You would most likely be running Windows 64 bit OS (double check this on your computer properties). • So you have download all 64 bit software components. Mix & match 32/64 bit components will not work and is very hard to debug. • I have given all 64 bit examples here. Follow given URLs. • Best practice: I suggest create directory structure as shown to store all downloads and another sub-dir to install all software All legal disclaimers, Use at your own discretion
