Installing Guard Dog

™

 

Most installation problems are a caused by having programs running while 
you try to install new software. Even if the installation appears normal, you 
won’t be able to run the new program. To avoid installation problems, close all 
open programs before you install Guard Dog, including programs that run in 
the background, such as screen savers or virus checkers. 

System requirements

To use Guard Dog you need:

• IBM PC or compatible computer running Windows 95 or Windows 98.

• 16 megabytes (MB) minimum of RAM.

• 20 MB free hard disk space to install Guard Dog and Oil Change. 

Additional disk space is required to install any optional Internet software 
that may be included on the compact disc (CD) version. 

• 256-color video display or better. Guard Dog looks and operates best in a 

resolution of 800x600 pixels (or greater) and a color palette of 32,000 color 
mode (15 bit) or higher. 256-color palette is supported, but may cause some 
color changes (caused by ‘palette swapping’) when switching between 
applications.

• Microsoft mouse or compatible pointing device.

• Access to the Internet, either a dial-up account with an Internet Service 

Provider (ISP) or a constant connection through a network.

• Sound card (not required, but you’ll need this to hear the sound for the 

Guard Dog video).

• Windows 95 Web browser (also called a 32-bit browser).

Some Help features—McAfee Software on the Web, Guard Dog on the 
Web, FAQs, and Report a problem—require you to connect to the McAfee 
Software Web site with a Web browser (software that allows you to view 
documents and download files from the World Wide Web). To use all the 
online support features, the browser must be Microsoft

®

 Internet Explorer, 

Netscape Navigator

™

, or America Online v3.0 (or later) for Windows 95.
