Therefore, you can always install it and give it a try. - Xteq X-Setup is 100% freeware which means: it *IS NOT* ad-based or spyware-enabled! Your privacy *IS NOT* at risk by using Xteq X-Setup! - In some very rare cases, Anti-Virus software can cause X-Setup to crash (GPFing). In this case, please disable your Anti-Virus software before starting SETUP.EXE or using X-Setup. _____________________________________________________ INSTALLING XTEQ X-SETUP To install Xteq X-Setup, extract all files from the archive to a directory and start SETUP.EXE. After Setup has finished, this directory can be deleted. _____________________________________________________ UPDATING XTEQ X-SETUP If you already have Xteq X-Setup installed, you can install this new version into the same path as the previous version. However, after you have started X-Setup for the first time, please go to File -> Options -> Misc and click the "Reset Configuration" button to make sure all options are validated. This action only needs to be made once. _____________________________________________________ UNINSTALLING XTEQ X-SETUP To remove Xteq X-Setup, use Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs. Please note that uninstalling X-Setup *DOES NOT* revert any changes you have made using X-Setup! _____________________________________________________ REQUIRED COMPONENTS Xteq X-Setup requires the Microsoft Scripting Engine (MSE) to work properly - this component is included by default in Windows 98, Windows 2000 and Windows ME. You can also download the MSE for free from: http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/vbscript/scripting.asp Beside this, HTML Help is needed as X-Setup does use a CHM file for its help system - HTML Help is included in Internet Explorer 3.0 or above. You can also download the HTML Help from: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/tools/htmlhelp/wkshp/download.htm X-Setup will check for the availability of both components before it starts and displays an error message if they are missing. _____________________________________________________ SUPPORT FOR XTEQ X-SETUP Due to the huge success of Xteq X-Setup, we are bombed with hundreds of email per day.
