Windows Hardware Driver Installation
NOTE:
If you intend to run Windows 2000 as your operating system, it is recom-
mended that Service Pack 4 be installed for proper Vela system software operation.
See Step 2 below if you need to install Service Pack 4.
All of the software that you need to install the
CineView HD Pro decoder is
located on a single CD-ROM. Just follow these steps, remembering that a number
of reboots may be required during the installation process.
Do not remove the
CD-ROM disc from the drive until you've completed the last step.
1. Uninstall any CineView Pro and Argus software currently on the system. Use
the Windows Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs application, following
instructions in the user manual that accompanied the already-installed software.
2. For Windows 2000, install Windows 2000 Service Pack 4, if it is not already
installed on your system. You can download this service pack and its installation
instructions from the Microsoft Web site on the Internet.
3. Following installation of SP 4, install the CineView HD Pro drivers and system
software (see next section).
Installing Hardware Drivers
Instructions below are for driver installation under Windows 2000.
Windows XP users should refer to “Driver Installation on a Windows XP
System,” page 15.
Driver Installation on a Windows 2000 (SP 4) System
If you have never before installed the CineView HD Pro decoder on your system,
you must install the device drivers. The drivers are located on the installation
CD-ROM disc, in the following folder:
Drivers\Cineview HD
.
NOTE:
As noted in the steps below, you will need to perform parts of this procedure
three times to install the three separate drivers required for the HD Pro decoder.
1. Install the CineView HD Pro decoder board, as instructed above.
2. Power up the system. If the “Add New Hardware Wizard” screen appears when
you boot your system, click Cancel. (You may see this screen three times, once for
each of the three drivers you install.)
3. Insert the Vela System Software CD-ROM disc into the CD drive.
4. Exit the Vela Software Setup screen (Figure 1-11, page 21) if it appears.
5. On your desktop, right click on My Computer and a drop-down menu will
appear. Select Properties.
