+ style="color: rgb(51, 153, 153);">Unpacking the .zip archive:</span></h3>
+ You will need to unzip the downloaded file in the location you have
+ chosen to hold the executable files (perhaps somewhere like <span
+ style="font-weight: bold;">\bin</span>). I would <span
+ style="font-weight: bold;">NOT</span> put them in <span
+ style="font-style: italic;">\Program Files</span>, since spaces in
+ directory or file names and command line environments are a very bad
+ mix, and will cause you endless problems. The archive will create a
+ <span style="font-weight: bold;"></span> top level directory <span
+ style="font-weight: bold;">Argyll_VX.X.X</span>, where X.X.X is
+ the version number, and the executables will be in <span
+ style="font-weight: bold;">Argyll_VX.X.X\bin</span>.
+ <h3><span style="color: rgb(51, 153, 153);">Making the tools
+ accessible:</span></h3>
+ You should also configure your %PATH% environment variable to give
+ access to the executables from your command line environment.<br>
+ <br>
+ For <span style="font-weight: bold;">Windows 8</span>, look in<br>
+ &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <span style="font-weight: bold;"></span>Desktop
+ -&gt; Settings -&gt; Control Panel -&gt; System And Security -&gt;
+ System -&gt; Advanced System Settings -&gt; Environment Variables<br>

+ Environment Variables<br>
+ <br>
+ For <span style="font-weight: bold;">XP and 2000 </span>look in<br>
+ &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Start-&gt;Settings-&gt;Control
+ Panel-&gt;System-&gt;Advanced-&gt;Environment Variables<br>
+ <br>
+ For <span style="font-weight: bold;">NT 4</span> look in<br>
+ &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Start-&gt;Settings-&gt;Control
+ Panel-&gt;System-&gt;Environment<br>
+ <br>
+ You want to add the directory you've chosen to your %PATH%, which is
+ a System Variable. Normally you would add this to the end of the
+ current setting, separated by a ';'.&nbsp; <br>
+ <br>
+ &nbsp;So if the current value of PATH is
+ "%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%" and you unpacked Argyll version
+ 1.5.1 in <span style="font-weight: bold;">d:\bin\</span>, then you
+ would modify PATH to be
+ "%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;d:\bin\Argyll_V1.5.1\bin", -
+ i.e. you append the path to the Argyll binaries to your PATH,
+ separated by the ';' character. The change will take effect when you
+ start a new command shell, which you start from Start
+ Menu-&gt;Accessories-&gt;Command Prompt, or Start
+ Menu-&gt;Programs-&gt;Accessories-&gt;Command Prompt. You can check
+ that the environment variable has been set by running the command
+ "echo %PATH%" in the command shell.<br>
+ <br>
+ The .zip file also contains several useful reference files (such as
+ scanner chart recognition templates, sample illumination spectrum
+ etc.) in the ref sub-directory, all the current documentation in a
+ doc sub-directory, and instrument USB drivers in the usb directory.<br>

+ wisdom) has removed the built in speaker driver, and now relies on
+ systems having a sound card and speakers's installed and turned on
+ to hear system beeps. So if you're wondering where the beeps have
+ gone when using <a href="chartread.html">chartread</a>, now you
+ know.<span style="font-weight: bold;"></span><br>
+ <br>
+ <span style="font-weight: bold;">NOTE: Microsofts generic VGA Driver</span>
+ does not appear to support setting the display VideoLUTs. You will
+ need to install a display driver for your specific display hardware
+ to enable this. Note that it is possible in many cases to use
+ Windows 7 video drivers on Windows 8 systems.<br>
+ <br>
+ <hr style="width: 100%; height: 2px;"><br>
+ <span style="font-weight: bold;">NOTE</span> that if you wish to use
+ Argyll tools (<a href="dispwin.html">dispwin</a>) to control display
+ calibration, that you will have to disable any other calibration
+ loader programs.<br>
+ <br>
+ There are other programs that will interfere with calibration
+ loading, such as igfxpers.exe that gets installed with nVidia
+ "Optimus" technology.<br>
+ You may have to disable both the igfx tray module
+ (c:\windows\system32\igfxtray.exe) and the igfxpph Module
+ (c:\windows\system32\igfxpph.dll) in addition to the persistence
+ Module (c:\windows\system32\igfxpers.exe).<br>
+ <br>
+ A good tool for this is <a
+ href="http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902">AutoRuns</a>.
+ Note that the igfxpph module may exist in several locations and you
+ have to disable all of them. Reboot after changing settings.<br>

+ If you are using a serial connected instrument, then there is
+ nothing special to do to enable this.<br>
+ <h3><span style="color: rgb(51, 153, 153);">USB Instruments:</span></h3>
+ If you are using a USB connected instrument, then suitable <span
+ style="font-weight: bold;">USB drivers</span> may need to be
+ installed.<br>
+ <span style="font-weight: bold;"><br>
+ </span>Note that the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Huey</span>
+ and <span style="font-weight: bold;">i1 Display Pro</span> and <span
+ style="font-weight: bold;">ColorMunki Display</span> colorimeter
+ appears as an HID (USB Human Interface Device Class) device, and
+ hence will be assigned to the default MSWindows HID driver. You
+ therefore <span style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration:
+ underline;">don't need</span> to install an Argyll <span
+ style="font-weight: bold;">usb</span> driver for these
+ instruments, although it is possible to select the libusb0.sys
+ driver as an alternative to the default HID driver.<br>
