Installation

Removal of any and all manufacturer-supplied drivers and software is recommended. To install the kX Driver, run the installation executable. It will extract all the driver files into your Program Files folder and will launch the kxsetup.exe program to continue the installation; the driver files will be installed into the Windows System directory (WinntSystem32 or WindowsSystem). Follow the directions on-screen and re-boot once all drivers have been installed.

Should setup fail, the kX Driver can be installed manually via the Windows Device Manager (Update Driver function). When asked to Specify Location, browse to the kx.inf file in the directory on your harddrive where the driver package has been uncompressed (e.g. C:Program FileskX Project35xx).

Verify that that the following Multimedia Audio Properties are properly set (applies to Windows XP and Windows 2000 only):

- 'Hardware acceleration' set to 'Full'

- 'Sample rate conversion quality' set to 'Best'

- 'Speaker setup' set to '5.1 Surround sound'

(control panel/multimedia/audio/advanced properties)

These settings are required for proper operation of the kX Driver and kX Mixer!.

To launch the kX Mixer, double-click the kX icon in the windows tray. Right-click the icon for access to additional functions. The kX Mixer is loaded automatically on start-up. If you don't see kX Mixer icon in your system tray, the driver might have installed incorrectly.
