Software Backups

plete backup of the enclosed distribution software diskette and store the original master
diskette in a safe place. Always work with the backup copies when installing the Nikon
software.
Minimum PC System Requirements
As an absolute minimum, your PC or compatible computer system must be con­
figured with the following components:
• Microsoft Windows version 3.0 or later (version 3.1 recommended)
• 8 Megabytes of RAM (16-32 recommended for best performance)
• 80 Megabyte Hard Disk (300MB or more recommended)
• Sufficient hard disk space for the Nikon Scanner plug-in, Coolscan Control soft­
ware, SCSI Driver, and resulting image files
• 8-bit display (24-bit true-color display strongly recommended)
Suggested System Configurations
Following these suggestions will yield the best scanning results:
• Coolscan is not guaranteed to operate with all third-party SCSI controllet cards. It
is for this reason that Nikon has supplied you with a Nikon-approved SCSI con­
troller card for the installation of your scanner. •
• For the most pleasing display, set your monitor to display the maximum number
