Xena Software Installation


The "Install Xena Control Panel" button installs the Xena Control Panel.

Driver installation is handled separately, by the Found New Hardware Wizard 
or the Update Device Driver Wizard.

The Driver and Control Panel are required for the board to function properly.


The "Install Xena Tools and Manuals" button copies the Xena Installation Guide
and Xena Users Guide to your hard disk.
It also copies a WindowsMediaFiles folder, which contains Windows Media Encoder
configuration files.
It also copies a Benchmarks folder, containing utility programs
which validate your PC's performance for Xena use.

To install Photoshop plugins and AfterEffects plugins,
you must manually copy the files from the Photoshop and AfterEffects folders
on the CD to the "plugins" folder of your Adobe installations.

To install PowerCG support, manually copy the PCG_HWFB.dll from the PowerCG 
folder on the CD to your PowerCG installation directory (where POWER_CG.EXE is 
located).

To install DirectX 9.0b, run dxsetup.exe from the DirectX9/DirectX9 folder
on the Xena installation CD.
DirectX 8.1 or greater is required for the Xena board to work.
(DirectX 8.1 is included with Windows XP.)
More Xena DirectShow functionality is available under DirectX 9.
Some Xena boards will not run under Windows 2000 with DirectX 8.1.
Some media files will not play through Xena with Windows Media Player
with DirectX 8.1.
DirectX 9 is a system component, and cannot be un-installed.
