HOWTO INSTALL viz|engine 2.8 for Windows NT/2000/XP:

* Insert the viz|engine CD into your CD-ROM drive.

* If the installation is not started automatically, select RUN
  from the STARTMENU and enter the command E:\SETUP.EXE (where
  E: stands for the drive-letter of your CD-ROM, if your CD-ROM
  is assigned to another drive-letter, substitue E: with your
  CD-ROM drive-letter).
  Alternativly, you can open the windows-explorer, change to
  your CD-ROM, and double-click on the SETUP.EXE.

* The setup procedure guides you throu the installation process.
  You can choose between 3 setup types named "Typical", "Compact"
  and "Custom", or you can install only the viz plugin sdk named
  "Plugin SDK". We recommend, that you use the "Typical" setup-type.

* After SETUP has completed copying the files to your disc, it
  installs the device driver for the dongle.

* If anything was fine till here, viz has been installed on
  you system and you are ready to use it.

   A T T E N T I O N:
   Don't forget, that viz|engine requires a dongle, to operate
   correctly, so make sure that the Hardlock DONGLE is properly
   CONNECTED to the PARALLEL PORT of your computer!!!

* If you start viz for the first time, you may need a license
  for your system. To get a license, you need to contact
  [vizrt] phone: ++47-55 90 84 20 or (preferred)
  e-mail to license@vizrt.com.
  You need to submit the
	- dongle serial-number and
	- the hardware on which viz should run on
          (e.g. SGI VisualPC 320; SGI VisualPC 540)
  to us.


For detailed information see the viz documentation.
You also should read the release notes.


Have a lot of fun using viz|engine.
