Items You Will Need that Are Not Included

To use your SW1000XG sound card and the included software, you will also need the following hardware and software:

Computer:
CPU/Memory
An IBM compatible personal computer

 

 

with a 166 MHz or higher Pentium CPU,

 

 

and at least 32 MB of memory.

 

 

 

 

Hard Disk
To use the software included with

 

 

SW1000XG, the software and drivers must

 

 

be installed. To install and use the soft-

 

 

ware, at least 20 MB of hard disk space is

 

 

required.

 

 

 

 

CD-ROM Drive
All the software that came with your sound

 

 

card is included on the supplied CD-ROM.

 

 

To install the software and to read the

 

 

demo songs, a CD-ROM drive is required.

 

 

 

 

Mouse
Operations in the included software are

 

 

mainly done using a mouse.

 

 

 

 

PCI Expansion Slot
To install the sound card, an empty PCI

 

 

slot is required.

 

 

 

 

Operating System
Windows 95 is required.

If the Windows 95 version installed on your computer is OSR2 or higher, you can use IRQ shar- ing. Because versions of Windows 95 earlier than that do not allow IRQ sharing, conflicts with other boards may happen or installation may not be possible. Should this occur, change the IRQ settings or remove the conflicting board.

nYou can check which version of Windows 95 is installed on your computer by clicking [My Computer], then [Control Panel], then [System]. If the version number displayed on the [General] page is 4.00.950 B, you have OSR2. If the number is 4.00.950 or 4.00.950 A, you have a previous version of Windows 95.
