2 Procedimiento de Instalación 1.- Instalar Microsoft DirectX 8.1 DirectX es el componente de Windows que maneja y controla los procesos multimedia en el sistema. Casi todos los drivers gráficos ATI requieren que DirectX versión 8.1 esté instalado previamente. Se debe emplear la versión de DirectX correspondiente al sistema operativo instalado, según se especifica en la tabla de Ubicación de archivos en este documento. Los archivos compactados que se indican son autoejecutables. 2.- Instalar el controlador gráfico ATI (Display Driver) Se instala el driver gráfico que controla la visualización en pantalla. Los drivers pueden ser ficheros compactados (.zip) auto-ejecutables, o a veces deben ser descompactados en una nueva carpeta y luego ejecutar el progama Setup que aparece en dicha carpeta. Si el programa de instalación (Setup) no identifica adecuadamente la tarjeta gráfica, pero el usuario está seguro del nombre o modelo de la tarjeta ATI y del archivo que contiene el driver, entonces se debe descompactar manualmente el archivo descargado con WinZip y ubicar los archivos en una carpeta especificada, desinstalar cualquier controlador y tarjeta gráfica que pueda haber quedado instalado con anterioridad, y luego realizar la instalación a través del Administrador de Dispositivos, actualizando el driver y especificando la carpeta donde el archivo ha sido descompactado. 3.- Instalar las aplicaciones de Captura/Edición de video y Sintonizador de TV (ATI Multimedia Center) Esta aplicación sòlo se instala en aquellas tarjetas gráficas que soportan Captura/Edición de video digital ó TV Tuner. ATI Multimedia Center es una barra adicional que se inserta en Windows para lanzar las aplicaciones multimedia que soporta la tarjeta gráfica. 4.- Instalar la aplicación para DVD (ATI DVD Player) Esta aplicación aparece publicada en el sitio Web de ATI Technologies Inc. (ati.com), pero requiere del CD de instalación de la tarjeta ATI para poder instalarse. No obstante, en el sitio FTP del sitio Web de TECUN aparece publicado el instalador completo de ATI DVD Player con el mismo nombre que utiliza ATI para su Web driver (DVD_4_1). Este instalador no requiere del CD de instalación de ATI, aunque es mucho mayor en tamaño. La aplicación ATI DVD Player se agrega a la barra de ATI Multimedia Center una vez instalada, o se inserta en el Menú de Programas si el AMC en cuestión no está previamente instalado. Descripción de los drivers A continuación se detallan los archivos instaladores en cuanto a tamaño, fecha de publicación, sistema operativo que soportan y otras especificaciones de acuerdo a la información publicada por los fabricantes. El usuario puede utilizar el buscador del Adobe Acrobat para encontrar rápidamente por su nombre el driver de su interés.
