SOFTWARE INSTALLATION
Overview
The BarcoMed Software Installation section has been divided into
three sections, one for each of the three supported versions of the
Windows operating system. They are: Windows NT 4.0, Windows
2000 and Windows XP.
Software
In addition to the device drivers for your BarcoMed Display
Controller(s), your BarcoMed Software CD also includes several
additional tools. They are: the BarcoMed Driver Tab, the BarcoMed
Hardware Tab, and the BARCO DPMS Screen Saver. The BarcoMed
Driver Tab and the BarcoMed Hardware Tab are automatically
installed with BarcoMed Display Controller driver and become part of
the Windows Display Control Panel. The BARCO DPMS (Display
Power Management Signaling) Screen Saver is an optional tool which
must be installed separately.
The BarcoMed Driver Tab helps you manage the special features of
your BarcoMed Display Controller(s). The BarcoMed Hardware Tab
gathers information about the BarcoMed Display Controller(s) and
your system that is useful when diagnosing problems. The BarcoMed
Hardware Tab can also be used to update the firmware on BarcoMed
Display Controllers that are based on the AURA chipset.
BarcoMed Software Installation Wizard
The BarcoMed Software Installation Wizard is a Graphical User
Interface (GUI) designed to install the BarcoMed Display Controller
Driver, and the BARCO DPMS Screen Saver in a single operation
prior to rebooting. The user may also use the BarcoMed Software
Installation Wizard to reinstall either the BarcoMed Display Controller
Drivers and/or modify, repair or remove the BARCO DPMS Screen
Saver from his system. The BarcoMed Display Controller Driver
should be installed prior to installing the BARCO DPMS Screen
Saver.
System Preparation
Regardless of what operating system you are using with your
computer, the steps for preparing your system for installation of the
BarcoMed Windows Systems Display Driver is identical.
Page 14
Prior to installing the BarcoMed Display Controller Driver you MUST:
1. Install the BarcoMed Display Controller(s), if you are using the
VGA capabilities of your BarcoMed controller you must remove
any third party VGA controller(s) from your system or disable the
integrated VGA controller.
2. Connect the high-resolution display(s) to the BarcoMed Display
Controller(s).
3. Turn the high-resolution display(s) on.
Refer to the Hardware Installation section of this manual for
instructions on installing the BarcoMed Display Controller(s) and
connecting them to the high-resolution display(s).
VGA Support
The following chart shows which controllers of the BarcoMed 2MP
Family of Display Controllers support VGA.

Installing the BarcoMed 2MP2H, 2MP2 or
2MP1NT Windows NT 4.0 Software
SPECIAL NOTE: Prior to installing the BarcoMed drivers and related
software you MUST install the BarcoMed Display Controller(s),
connect the high resolution display(s) to the card(s), and turn the high
resolution display(s) on. Refer to the Hardware Installation section of
this manual for instructions on installing the BarcoMed Display
Controller(s) and connecting them to the high resolution display(s).
The following software installation instructions presume that Windows
NT 4.0 is already installed on your system. If you need to install or
reinstall Windows NT 4.0 on your system you must first remove the
BarcoMed Display Controller(s) and use a 3
rd
party VGA card and
VGA monitor during the Windows NT 4.0 installation process.
Using the BarcoMed Product Installation Wizard
To install your BarcoMed 2MP2H, 2MP2 or 2MP1NT Windows Display
Controller Driver and BARCO DPMS Screen Saver for the first time
follow the steps below. If you are reinstalling the drivers or installing a
new driver release over an existing driver release, skip step 1 below:
1. Install the BarcoMed Display Controller(s) into your machine.
Please refer to the Hardware Installation Guide that came with
your BarcoMed Display Controller(s) for more information.
2. Boot the machine, log in using an account with administrator
privileges and follow these steps.
3. Insert your BarcoMed Software CD into your computer’s CD drive.
The “BarcoMed Software Product Installation Wizard” should start
automatically. If it doesn’t start within 3 minutes, browse the
contents of your BarcoMed Software CD and double click on the
file, “Setup.exe” to start the wizard.
The BarcoMed Product Installation Wizard will start by inspecting
your system to make certain that all of the necessary Windows
components are up to date. If it determines that the Microsoft
Installer is current, the wizard will start by displaying the BarcoMed
Product Installation Wizard’s welcome screen (see figure 2 on the
next page). If it determines that the Microsoft Installer is either
missing or out of date, it will display the screen shown in figure 1
on the next page. Click “OK” to continue, the wizard will then
install a newer version of the Microsoft Installer.
Page 16
Figure 1
The BarcoMed Product Installation Wizard will advise you when it
has successfully installed the new version of the Microsoft
Installer. Click “OK” to continue.
The BarcoMed Product Installation Wizard may prompt you to
restart your system. If it does, click “Yes” to restart your system.
When your system restarts, log in using an account with
administrator privileges. The BarcoMed Product Installation Wizard
will restart automatically.
If the wizard doesn’t prompt you to restart your system, it will
continue to the BarcoMed Product Installation Wizard Welcome
Screen (see figure 2).
4. By default all the software on the BarcoMed Software CD will be
selected. For the initial installation we recommend that you install
all of the software. If you do not want to install a particular
BarcoMed Software product, deselect it by clearing the checkbox
next to it.
Click “Install” to continue or “Cancel” to exit the wizard.
Figure 2

Driver Installation
5. Click “Next” on the Display Driver Wizard’s Welcome Screen to
continue or “Cancel” to exit the Display Driver Wizard and return
to the Software Install Wizard.
6. The Device Selection Screen lists the devices supported by the
drivers on the CD. Since Windows NT 4.0 supports only one type
of video device at a time, you may choose only one type of device
to install. Selected the device driver you want to install and click
“Next”.
If you selected a device with an existing driver, the wizard will
compare the existing driver’s version against the version of the
driver you are installing. If the existing driver’s version is newer
than the one you are installing, the Wizard will warn you that the
current driver is newer than the one you installing (figure 3).
Figure 3
Click “OK” to continue. If you don’t want to replace the exiting
driver, click “OK” and then click “Cancel”.
7. The Device Confirmation Screen lists the device driver that will be
installed. If you want to change your selection, click “Back” to
return to the Device Selection Screen. Click “Next” to begin
installing the driver. Click “Cancel” to abort the driver installation.
Special Note: Once you click “Next”, you cannot cancel the driver
installation.
During the BarcoMed driver installation, an install progress window
is displayed.
8. When the Wizard tells you that it has successfully installed the
selected driver, click “Finish”. The wizard will now begin installing
the next selected piece of BarcoMed Software. If you are working
with the default selections, this will be the BARCO DPMS
InstallShield Wizard. Please turn to the section, “BARCO DPMS
Screen Saver Installation”.
Note: Clicking “Cancel” will also return you to the BarcoMed
Product Install Wizard, but will not delete the Barco Display Driver.
The wizard will also begin to install the next selected piece of
BarcoMed Software.
Page 18
If the Wizard
failed to successfully install the selected driver, it will
warn you (figure 4). Click “Finish” to return to the BarcoMed
Product Install Wizard.
The wizard will now begin installing the next selected piece of
BarcoMed Software. Click “Cancel”, then click “Yes” then click
“Finish” and then click “Back” and try reinstalling the driver
following the steps above or using the steps outlined in
“Reinstalling or Updating your BarcoMed Drivers” section found
later in this chapter.

Install Wizard.
10. The “Customer Information” screen will appear (see figure 5 on the
next page). The Installer will automatically fill in the blanks using
the information entered when Windows was installed on your
system. You may change this information if you wish. Click “Next”
to continue.
Page 19
Figure 5
11. The “Setup Type” page will now appear (figure 6). Choose
“Typical” to install the default schemes with English names.
Choose “Custom” to install the default schemes with either Dutch
or German names. Currently the default schemes are not
supported in the Japanese, Korean and Chinese languages. We
recommend that the users of these three languages install the
English default schemes and then rename and save them in their
language in the DPMS configuration screen. Click “Next” to
continue.
Figure 6
12. The “Ready to Install Program” screen will appear, click “Install”
to continue.
Page 20
During installation the wizard will display a progress screen.
13. When the “InstallShield Wizard Completed” page appears, click

If you are finished installing your BarcoMed Software, click
“Finish” to exit the BarcoMed Product Install Wizard or click
“Back” to return to the Welcome Screen of the BarcoMed Product
Install Wizard (figure 7) to select additional software to install.
Figure 7
14. Windows may now warn you that you must restart your computer
before the new settings will take effect.
Remove your BarcoMed Software CD from its drive and click
“Yes” to restart your computer now or click “No” if you wish to
restart your computer later.
Special Note: You must restart your computer before you can set
the resolution of your high resolution display(s).
15. When your computer restarts, select “NT Version 4.0 (VGA
Mode)”. Log in using an account with administrator privileges and
set the resolution of your high resolution display(s).
Setting the Resolution of Your High Resolution Display
1. After you have logged in using an account with administrator
privileges as described in step 15 above, Windows NT 4.0 will
launch the “Invalid Display Settings” dialog box, click “OK”.
2. The “Display Properties Control Panel” will now open. Click on
the “Settings” tab and click on the “List all Modes” button (see
figure 8 on the next page).
