Hi 
From memory the installation instructions for miktex are included with the packages (in
the first zip file). Basically they say put the packages in a tempory folder, unzip the
first one to this folder, then run the installation program.
There is a pdf file of installation instructions guiding you through each step of the
installation process.

Make sure you get some form of advanced text editor (winedt or ultra edit)
