3. Software Setup
Install SmartDoctor
SmartDoctor is a utility that monitors the card’s graphic chip state, alerting users
about abnormal events, such as a fan malfunction or chip overheat. Likewise, the
utility “cools” down the graphic chip temperature when it is idle or returns it to its
maximum capability when necessary.
1. Insert the CD installation disc into
your CD-ROM drive or double click
the CD drive icon in My Computer
to bring up the autorun screen or run
Setup.exe in the root directory of
your CD-ROM drive.
Click Utilities.
2. The Utilities box appears. Click
Install SmartDoctor.
NOTE:
If your graphics card is not
equipped with a monitor IC, an error
message warns you that monitor IC
was not detected. The installation
will abort. SmartDoctor works only
with cards with a monitor IC.
3. When the Welcome box appears,
click Next to start the installation.
To complete the installation, simply
follow the on-screen instructions or
prompts.
