Chapter 3, Preparing Your System for a New Installation
Install your third-party software
Make sure you install your third-party applications before attempting to
install your DigiSuite software. This is because DigiUtils Setup must
locate the directory where you’ve installed your program in order to install
the plug-in for it.
You should avoid installing any software on your system’s A/V drives as
this may degrade system performance. If possible, use your A/V drives
exclusively for storing audio and video files.
¯Note
If you update your version of 3D Studio MAX, you’ll need to re-
install the DigiSuite 3D Studio MAX plug-in. If you update other software
for which you’ve installed a DigiSuite plug-in, you’ll need to re-install the
plug-in only if you place the new version in a different directory.
Run DigiUtils Setup to prepare some configuration
files
Before you can install your DigiSuite hardware, you need to run DigiUtils
Setup. This is because Windows 2000 contains some configuration files
that can cause conflicts with your DigiSuite hardware. If these files are not
modified when Windows first starts up with DigiSuite hardware installed
in your computer, you’ll be unable to restart your system and install your
DigiUtils software. Setup is designed to detect and modify these files so
that you’ll have a trouble-free installation once you’ve installed your
DigiSuite LX MAX.
1 Insert the DigiSuite CD in your CD-ROM drive.
2 From the DigiSuite CD menu, choose
Run DigiUtils Setup
.
3 Setup detects and modifies the initialization files.
¯Note The file update process happens quite quickly and provides no
visible feedback onscreen.
4 When the update is complete, a message box appears prompting you
to shut down your system. Click
OK
to shut down your system and
proceed to the next chapter for hardware installation.
