B. Troubleshooting the installation of ScreamSaver
If you experience an error with installing ScreamSaver,
please ensure that you have closed down all other
programs while you are installing it. Some programs
such as virus checkers and Microsoft Office can cause
installation problems.
To see what programs you have got running and to be
able to close them down you should:
In Windows 3.x: Press the CONTROL and ESCAPE keys at
the same time
In Windows 95: Press the CONTROL and the ALT and the
DELETE keys at the same time ONCE only.
You will then see a list of programs
which are open.
Select the ones you want to close down and press the
END TASK button.
(Please note that you should not close down "Program
Manager" or "Explorer".)
(N.B. If you are concerned about closing down a virus
checker then first scan these disks before doing so.)
If you are told that there has been a conflict in
running the installation package but you have checked
that no other files are open, please exit and restart
Windows and try again after closing down the extra
programs again. Unfortunately Windows has some
problems with it and very occasionally this has had
to be done to install properly.
If you have done all of the above and still experience
difficulties in installing ScreamSaver please contact
our technical support by email at support@infinn.com
or by phone on (UK) 0870 9026141.
