Vidiola is designed to be easy to use and easy to
install. Before installing Vidiola into your computer,
make sure that it will not conflict with existing
components. See Appendix A for help on checking
for potential conflicts.
There are three fundamental steps to the installa-
tion, which are explained in detail on the following
pages. To get up and running quickly, see the quick
installation steps; otherwise skip to "Step 1: Prepar-
ing Your Computer."
