- 2.0 Installation, Uninstall
- --------------------------------------------------------------
-
- 2.1) Installation
-
- Create a "goldwave" directory and unzip or copy all files
- into that directory. Create a short cut to "goldwave.exe".
-
- Search your system for the file BWCC32.DLL. If you find any
- copies, check the date. If the BWCC32.DLL file included with
- GoldWave is newer, replace all old copies with the one
- included with GoldWave. Copy BWCC32.DLL to the Windows\System
- (or Win95\system or Winnt\System) directory if it is not
- there already. You should restart Windows to remove any old
- copies from memory.
-
-
- 2.2) Uninstall
-
- Delete the following files from your Windows directory:
- express.eqx
- gwpreset.ini
- goldwave.ini
- Other files are listed in section 4.0.
-
- Generally, BWCC32.DLL should not be deleted from the
- Windows\System directory as it may be required by other
- applications.
-
-
- --------------------------------------------------------------
- 3.0 Important Additional Notes
- --------------------------------------------------------------
-
- 3.1) Windows 95 or Windows NT 3.51 or later is required to
- run this version. A Pentium processor is recommended.
-
- 3.2) GoldWave includes a recent version of BWCC32.DLL
- from Borland. GoldWave checks for this version of BWCC32.DLL
- (or a newer one). If you get an error message, you should
- delete any older copies of BWCC32.DLL or replace them with the
- one included with GoldWave. You may have to restart Windows
- to remove the older BWCC32.DLL from memory. Only one copy of
- BWCC32.DLL is needed and should be kept in the Windows system
- directory.
-
- 3.3) In order to get the scope working correctly, you might
- have to change the positioning method in the Device Controls
- Setup.
-
- 3.4) If GoldWave crashes during playback or recording,
- contact your sound card manufacturer to obtain an updated
- driver. Some drivers are available from the World Wide Web.
- The GoldWave WWW home page has links to some sound card
- manufacturers.
-
- 3.5) Updates for GoldWave can be downloaded from the GoldWave
- WWW home page:
