18.12.1 Installation on a PC with Windows® 95/98

If a previous version of the TruckCom application has been installed on the PC, it will be necessary to edit the System.ini file. Start the Msconfig.exe application by selecting the Start button, selecting Run and then typing msconfig. Click on System.ini and open the folder (386Enh). Unmark the option at Device=C:\Windows\Cpcppvd.vxd. Save the change and close the application.

Now continue with installation

The software application is supplied on a CD or via a network. Start installation by running X:\SETUP.EXE, where X:\ is the drive on which the installation application can be found. Then follow the on-screen instructions.

18.12.2 Installation on a PC with Windows XP/ 2000

To make the application work, it is necessary to first enter a value in the Windows® Registry and then make a few changes in the Windows® Control panel.

Due to the built-in Windows® security, this must be done manually. The instructions below provide step-by-step guidance to enable these changes and make the interface operate under Windows XP and Windows 2000.

The changes can be made either before or after TruckCom is installed.
