CHAPTER 5 5-1 INSTALLATION OF MagicTwin (a 2-User-System solution) Introduction MagicTwin is a 2-User-System solution built on this special designed motherboard with dual video connectors (such as a dual port AGP VGA card), two PS/2 keyboards and two PS/2 mice connected from motherboard using packaged Y-cables and one piece of software (Driver and Tools). It allows you to add ONE additional station simultaneously running under Windows XP Home or XP-Professional (Service Pack 1).
¾ As well attach the delivered Y- cables to the “green” port (former PS/2 Mouse port) and into the “violet” port (former PS/2 Keyboard port) at the rear side of the motherboard. st nd ¾ Connect the 1 . and 2 . Mouse to the octopus cable, which is also linked to the st nd “green” PS/2 connector and the 1 . and 2 Keyboard to the other octopus cable, which is also connected to the “violet” port. The additional monitor MUST be attached nd otherwise windows will not detect and enable the 2 monitor.
Welcome- Mask, click “Next” Option: Change destination path or click “Next” Password and Network Console, click “Next” Type in the Serial and your Address, click “Next” Installation in process, please wait… Afterwards “Reboot your PC”. ¾ Windows is restarting and loading the new installed drivers. The MagicTwin will be activated nd nd and assign automatically the 2 Station to the 2 monitor, -PS/2-keyboard and PS/2 mouse.
NVIDIA AGP-card The NVIDIA AGP dual-headed adapters are supported under MagicTwin. It does not work with ATI graphic card at the moment. One display can be used by the host and the second by the MagicTwin station. This will be done automatically after installation of MagicTwin. Please refer to the MagicTwin XP 2-User Software Installation Guide for detail. Language Support The MagicTwin Console text and online help have not been updated for all supported languages.
