NISIS Qp2 Digital Camera Installation Guide Rev 1.9
Installation Instructions
IMPORTANT NOTES:
??
You need to load the software drivers
BEFORE
you connect the Digital Camera to your PC.
??
Please check that your PC meets the minimum system requirements before attempting to install your
Digital Camera.
??
Please take the time to follow these instructions very carefully. An extra few minutes that it takes to
ensure you follow these instructions precisely and completely, will help ensure the installation of
your NISIS product is successful. If you miss or ignore any of these instructions you may end up with
a partial or failed installation, and it can be very difficult to correct a partial or failed installation.
Background Tasks
Before installing any Programs, Drivers or Hardware, you should ensure that all other programs and background
tasks are closed. This applies to whatever Programs, Drivers or Hardware you are installing and is not specific to
NISIS products. To check what background tasks are running, hold the “Ctrl” and “Alt” keys down on your
keyboard while you press the “Delete” key once only.
Windows 98 or ME
If you are running Windows 98, or ME, you should see a list of programs that are running in the background.
Windows 2000
If you are running Windows 2000, you should see a Windows Security window. Click on the Task Manager
button to see a list of programs that are running in the background.
Some of these programs or background tasks are necessary for Windows to function correctly, but most others
are background tasks such as mouse drivers, virus checkers and other communication programs, should be shut
down, temporarily, while you install new application programs, drivers or hardware.
If you see "Explorer" listed, leave it displayed. If you see "Systray" listed, leave it displayed. All other tasks can
be ended.
You close down a Task by highlighting it, then clicking on the "End Task" button. Some tasks will end
immediately, while others may take some time before you see the screen confirming the task has ended.
Once all the tasks that you have chosen to close down, have ended, you can start the installation of your NISIS
product drivers.
When you restart your PC, all tasks that you ended, will start again as usual.
Don't forget that each time you restart your PC, background tasks are enabled again. So if you are installing
several programs, which require you to reboot your PC after each installation, you will need to temporarily end
each background task after every restart until you have completed all the installations.
Installing the Qp2 Digital Camera Drivers
Insert the Installation CD into your CD ROM Drive. The CD should automatically show the Installation screen.
If the CD does not autostart, then you can start the “auto.exe” program manually by clicking on the Windows
“Start” button, select the “Run…” option, click on the “Browse…” button, and locate your CD ROM Drive
(usually drive “D”), and select the “auto.exe” program, click on the “Open” button, and finally click on the
“OK” button.
Select “Qp Camera Manager” from the list and follow the instructions on the screen.
If Windows shows a Digital Signature Not Found window, then select Yes and continue with the installation.
