Installation Procedure
If you have already installed some of the Leica Cytogenetics 
Applications, we recommend that you uninstall them before 
reinstalling this software. 
Refer to: the un-installation instructions on page 15.
Note: if you do not uninstall, you should ensure the ‘Cybase’ option is
unchecked (otherwise you will get a message warning you that Cybase 
cannot overwrite an existing installation). The CW4000 Karyo installation 
will warn you that there are existing databases. 
Note: If you are to use a Leica DC camera, you must install the Leica DC 
Twain software before installing this CD. 
WARNING: If you choose to uninstall an existing installation, you may
loose data that you have saved in one of the Leica Cytogenetics 
databases.

‘Preview Mode’ only, with some functions disabled.

for Cytogenetics' CD is correctly loaded into your CD-ROM drive,
