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

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.

Figure 4

InstallShield Wizard to begin the installation. Click “Cancel” to

cancel the DPMS installation and return to the BarcoMed Product

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

“Finish”.

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).
