Installing the Matrox M.Key/100 software
¡ Important You cannot install the M.Key/100 software on a computer that
already has Matrox video hardware and drivers, such as a Matrox Axio system
with Axio.utils. If you don’t have Matrox video hardware but you’ve installed the
Matrox Video for Windows software codecs on your computer, you must remove
these codecs using
Add or Remove Programs in Windows Control Panel
before installing the M.Key/100 software.
° To install the Matrox M.Key/100 software:
1 Plug the M.Key/100 dongle into your computer’s USB port as explained in
“Connecting Matrox M.Key/100 to your computer” on page 2. Windows
will detect M.Key/100 and the “Found New Hardware Wizard”
will appear.
2 Press ESC or click Cancel to close the “Found New Hardware Wizard.” To
ensure a smooth software installation, it is essential that you do not let the
wizard try to install any drivers.
3 Insert the Matrox M.Key/100 installation CD into your computer’s
CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive. The Matrox M.Key/100 Setup program will
start (the Setup program refers to Matrox M.Key/100 as Matrox M.Key).
4 Follow the on-screen instructions to install the software.
The “Found New Hardware Wizard” may appear during installation. If this
happens, ignore it and continue with the Matrox M.Key/100 Setup program. The
wizard will close automatically when installation is complete. If you have Adobe
Premiere Pro installed on your computer, Matrox Desktop project presets will be
installed for use with Matrox M.Key/100. For details on using these presets, see
the next section.
¦ Note If you later want to install Matrox video hardware on a computer that
already has M.Key/100 installed, you must first uninstall the M.Key/100
software. To uninstall the M.Key/100 software, choose
Start > Programs >
Matrox M.Key > Uninstall Matrox M.Key .
If you plug M.Key/100 into a different USB port
After you have installed the M.Key/100 software, it is recommended that you
always use M.Key/100 in the same USB port that you used when you installed
the software. If you plug M.Key/100 into a different USB port, the “Found New
Hardware Wizard” will appear again. You won’t need to re-install the M.Key/100
software, but you’ll need to use the “Found New Hardware Wizard” to install the
required drivers. For each driver, select
Install the software automatically
(Recommended) , then click Next . Repeat this step until the “Found New
Hardware Wizard” has finished installing all the required drivers.
