installed first. After the driver has been installed,
proceed to the subsequent steps for
HYDRAVISION software installation.
Use the following instructions for a new
hardware and Appian driver installation OR for
a driver upgrade on a system with a previously
installed Appian RV100 based Windows XP
driver. If upgrading from a previous driver,
skip step 1 and go straight to step 2.
1. Upon boot up of the system, if this is a new
hardware installation, Windows XP will
automatically detect the new hardware and install
the ATI Radeon VE DDR or Radeon 7000 VE
"built-in" device drivers. This is because the
Appian Graphics RV100 based products all use
the ATI Technologies Radeon VE graphics
processor. In this case if prompted to restart the
system during the installation process, click Yes.
⌦ WARNING! After the system re-boots with
the ATI Radeon VE DDR or Radeon 7000 VE
driver installed, DO NOT CHANGE ANY OF
THE DISPLAY SETTINGS AT THIS TIME – the
results will not be predictable with the ATI
driver installed and the system may lock up
or restart on its own.

 NOTE: If your system is connected to the
Internet, you may be able to install the Appian
Graphics Windows XP WHQL driver automatically
instead of using the provided installation CD. To
do this after the “built-in” ATI Radeon VE DDR or
Radeon 7000 VE driver installs, right-click on
your desktop and select Properties, to bring up
the Display Properties window. Next, select
the Settings tab in the Display Properties
window, right-click on display number 1 to
highlight it and then click Properties. Click on
the Adapter tab in the next properties window
and then click on the Properties button. Click
