Yahcamview Version 4.05 Readme File

***IMPORTANT*** READ THIS BEFORE INSTALLING:

This is a full setup and as such will overwrite any previous installed version. This includes creating a new BLANKcam list file. Therefore if you have a previous version installed make a copy of the cdata.dat file and the cfavs.dat file and put them in another folder. After instalation of the  version is complete put them back in the yahcamview folder.

Installation Instructions:

(1) Remove any previously installed versions (control panel add/remove programs) or if from a previous msi install (version 4.03 and above) just run the new msi and choose the uninstall option then run the msi again to install. Do not choose the repair option if using this method.

(2) Run the yahcamview.msi file to start the install wizard - Note this is a Microsoft Installer package.  Windows versions earlier than 2000 (i.e. 98, 95) may not recognise this file type. If that is the case then you will need to install Microsoft installer 1. This is a free download from Microsoft. Windows 200, XP already contain Microsoft Installer.

(3) Just follow the on screen instructions to install.
