2.2. Preparing the computer and installing the program

Load the CD-ROM provided with Focal Dual Monitor amplifier. Copy the content of the CD-ROM to the hard disk, at an appropriate location.

To install the program, simply double click on the Set-up icon and follow the instructions.

If not already done, power up the Dual Monitor amplifier and connect the USB cable between the amplifier and your computer. Wait a few seconds while the amplifier firmware is loading, when finished Windows will notify you that a new hardware has been detected.

When prompted do NOT allow Windows to install the drivers for you. ALWAYS choose to install the drivers by yourself. Windows 98, 2000 and XP will permit you to search for a driver. When asked to specify a location browse the disk directory and select C:\\FOCAL USB DRIVER 1.

Install all drivers. Usually, you will need to install the drivers twice.

Note: If this program informs you about an old Windows Installer version, you must exit the program, install a Windows Installer version 1.2 or above. Windows Installer 2.0 for Windows 98 is included on the installation CD or it can be downloaded from the Microsoft website.
