Once you have installed NewsQ Pro and the other components, you can install
the optional X-keys Jog/Shuttle controller. NewsQ Pro has been designed to

Pro machine.

and follow instructions. Do not check the box to put shortcuts on the desktop.

If AutoRun is not enabled on your CD-ROM drive, find the file
"ainstall.exe" on the installation CD and run it.

3. Reboot the computer when prompted.

4. When the installation has completed, the X-keys Macro Maker and Macro

Manager windows automatically pop up. Close these windows. NewsQ Pro
comes with a pre-configured X-keys layout.
