Configurations and Software Installation

Setting Up Display Controller (VGA graphics adapter)

Select a resolution of at least 1024 x 768 pixels (1280 x 1024 or more recommended) and a color

depth of 32 bits (TrueColor); (Windows Start menu > Control Panel > Display > Settings).

When working with a two-monitor configuration, use a resolution of at least 2048 x 768 pixels

and a color depth of 32 bits (TrueColor), or higher (Pro version: use a separate PCI graphic card.

See www.pinnaclesys.com for more information).

Setting Up an IntelliMouse

We recommend using the Microsoft IntelliMouse with

Liquid Edition

It is usually not necessary to install the IntelliMouse for Pinnacle Liquid, because the IntelliM-

ouse driver software is installed automatically when you install Windows and the IntelliMouse is

already connected.

If this is not the case, you can install the driver software via Mouse Settings in the Control Panel.

Of course you may use a different wheel mouse.

Installing Pinnacle Liquid

Pro version users: Please refer to the separate hardware Installation manual.

Before installing the Pinnacle Liquid software, be sure that Windows XP or 2000 (not NT) is

installed. You must have administrator rights under Windows on the installation computer.

w A note for users of Liquid purple:

Remove any existing, old FAST IEEE 1394 drivers from the system (check Windows

Device Manager > IEEE Bus Host Controller). Restart the system before installation.
