Caveat Upgrader

There are two categories of Liquid blue users who will need to follow separate upgrade instructions to

prepare their systems for a Liquid blue v5.6 installation:

1. Customers using HP xw6000 or Compaq Evo W8000 have to upgrade to Windows XP

Professional

2. Customers using legacy systems (3 height units chassis and 5 height units chassis with ASUS

CUV4X-DLS main board) must not upgrade to Windows XP. These systems do not support

Windows XP!

Please read the general information related to Liquid blue workstations as well as the information specific

to your system’s upgrade requirements.

Introduction

This document is designed to help a Liquid blue v4.6x customer upgrade to Liquid blue v5.60.

information. Neither this document nor Pinnacle Systems Support is meant to educate the computing

novice or casual integrator about the details needed to construct a reliable, high performance editing

workstation.
