Technical Support
Refer to the Britannica
2002 Installation Guide found in the disc jewel case for step-by-step
instructions. When you see this Readme at the end of the setup procedure,
choose File and Print to print it or File and
Exit to close the window.
System Requirements
For success in running Britannica 2002, your PC system
should meet the following minimum requirements. The recommended requirements
give better performance (and more enjoyment).
Microsoft® Windows® 95, 98, 2000,
Me, XP
or Windows NT® 4.0
Pentium® 166 MHz or faster
processor, 233 MHz recommended
64MB RAM minimum; 96MB minimum for
Windows 2000/XP/Me
140 MB free hard-disk space (plus
50MB for IE 5.01)
CD-ROM drive
800x600 resolution, 16-bit color
Mouse
Sound card and speakers
recommended
Printer recommended
Internet access recommended*
*See "Internet Access"
below.
Notes: Windows NT systems must have Service Pack 3 installed.
CD-ROM carousels are not
supported.
Software Installed
The following software components are installed as part of
the Britannica 2002 setup if they are not found on your system:
Microsoft Internet Explorer
version 5.01*
Support for Visual Basic 6.0
runtime
Microsoft Java Virtual Machine
Sun Microsystems Java Classes
Windows Media Player
Macromedia®
Shockwave and Flash players
IPIX ActiveX Plugin
* See "Internet
Explorer" below.
Video Settings
Make sure your system Display Properties are set to 16-bit
color or better and 800x600 resolution or better. You can check this by opening
the Windows Start menu and choosing Settings, Control Panel, and Display. The installation procedure
will not proceed if these requirements are not met.
Remove Previous Versions
Before installing Britannica 2002, we recommend removing
previous versions of Britannica CD. To keep an older version, direct the
Britannica 2002 setup to a different directory. Keep in mind that your new 2002
version will update and add to the old articles and will include more media.
Not all special features have been retained.
To remove a previous version, use the Windows Start menu to choose Settings and Control Panel. Double-click Add/Remove
Programs, select the older Britannica CD version, then click Add/Remove.
Installation Options
The Britannica 2002 setup procedure
provides three options: Typical, One Disc, or Complete.
Typical
The Typical option installs the
Britannica 2002 program on your hard drive. After installation, you will need
both Disc 1 and Disc 2 to access all features when you run the program.
One
Disc
The One-Disc option installs the
Britannica 2002 program and additional data files on your hard drive. After
installation, you will need only Disc 1
to run the program. In addition to eliminating disc-swapping, you may
experience improved performance for some features. You will need up to 1 GB
free disk space for this installation.
Complete
The Complete option installs the
Britannica 2002 program and all data files on your hard drive. During
installation you will be prompted to replace the Installation disc with Disc 1.
(You will not need Disc 2 for the installation.) After installation, you will
not need any disc in your CD-ROM
drive to run the program. You will need about 2 GB free disk space for this
installation.
Hard Disk Space
The Britannica 2002 setup attempts to track whether or not
you have the required disk space for your installation choice. However, since
hard drives store data differently, the program can't always be accurate. Make
sure that you have free hard disk space above and beyond the suggested
requirement to avoid problems.
Starting the Program
Britannica 2002 Setup installs the program and program icons
in a Program Files\Britannica\2002 directory, unless you choose another
location. You can start Britannica 2002 by opening the Start menu and choosing Programs,
Britannica, and Britannica 2002. In addition, a Britannica 2002 Deluxe shortcut icon is provided on your
Windows desktop; double-click it to run the program.
Internet Explorer
Britannica 2002 requires a subset of the Microsoft Internet
Explorer 5.01 browser and certain Internet Explorer browser plug-ins to run. If
the Britannica 2002 setup does not detect the components it needs on your hard
drive, it includes them with the installation.
Your Internet
Settings Are Not Affected
If you already use Internet Explorer as your Web browser,
your application will be updated to version 5.01, unless you direct the setup
to a different directory. This should not affect your dial-up or e-mail
settings. If you use a browser other than Internet Explorer, the components
installed by Britannica 2002 setup will not interfere with your current
Internet settings. You can continue to use your current Web browser as always.
Trouble Upgrading to
Internet Explorer 5.01
If the Britannica 2002 Setup failed to upgrade your version
of Internet Explorer to version 5.01, try running the Internet Explorer
installation separately before you install Britannica 2002. Look for the IExplore folder on the Britannica 2002
Installation disc and run ie5setup.exe.
Internet Access
Internet access is not required to use the CD-ROM
encyclopedia. However, to take full advantage of searching with Britannica.com
and to discover related Internet sites as you work, we highly recommend going online.
To go online, you need to acquire an Internet Service Provider. Providers may
be included with your Windows setup.
Directing Internet
Explorer to dial the Internet
If you are not connected to the Internet when you select an
online feature, Britannica 2002 itself does not launch a dialup connection, but
rather relies on Internet Explorer's dialup connection setting. You can add a
connection in Internet Explorer so that you are connected to the Internet when
you attempt to go online.
1. Open Internet
Explorer separately.
2. Open Tools menu and select Internet Options.
3. Click the Connections tab.
4. Select your
Internet Access dial-up program.
5. Select Always dial my default connection and
click OK.
Trouble Displaying or Playing Media
Images and Media Not
Shown
Britannica 2002 depends on Internet Explorer being able to
"play" media and "show pictures." If you are having trouble displaying images
or playing media in Britannica 2002, open the Internet Explorer Tools menu, select Internet Options, and choose Advanced.
Click the Restore Defaults button to
ensure that you have the correct settings.
Trouble Playing
Videos
Some systems may have trouble playing videos (especially
Hewlett-Packard systems with 8MB of video RAM provided by ATI128 AGP or built
onto an Intel 820 motherboard). If you experience trouble, try this:
1. Right-click a blank portion of your Windows desktop.
Select Properties.
2. Click on the Settings
tab.
3. Click the Advanced
button.
4. Click on the Performance
tab.
5. Slide the Hardware acceleration bar two-thirds of the way
to the left, from "Full."
6. Click OK.
Multimedia Errors
If you experience problems while using multimedia components
of Britannica 2002, try updating your Macromedia Flash and Shockwave players.
Visit www.macromedia.com and
download the latest Flash and Shockwave Players.
Other Known Problems
Find Window Problems
In rare cases, the Find window (Search, Britannica A-Z, and
KnowledgeNavigator) appears to freeze or unusual visual artifacts appear. When
this happens, refresh the window by dragging it to a new size or selecting a
different tab in the interface. If necessary, close and restart Britannica
2002.
Research Organizer
Help
Opening the Help on Research Organizer causes the Research
Organizer window to go behind the Britannica 2002 window, while the Help is
displayed in front. To view the Research Organizer window while you read the
help, simply click on the Britannica 2002 window and minimize it. You will be
able to see Research Organizer with Help just above it, and switch back and
forth between the two windows as needed.
Research Organizer
Citations
In this version of Research Organizer, to select a note
citation form, you must click and hold
down the mouse button as you select "Internet/URL,"
"Book," "Periodical," or another type of citation.
Outlook Express
Printing
If you experience a problem printing from Microsoft Outlook
Express after installing Britannica 2002, try updating Outlook Express. Visit
the download area of www.microsoft.com and
download the latest update to Outlook Express.
Data Errors
With over 44 million words we've tried to make it perfect,
but there still remain errata in the data, both in display and in hyperlinks.
There may be only a handful of errors in the entire encyclopedia, but these
will be corrected. Updates will be available from the Britannica Support area.
See your User Guide for directions on getting the latest program updates.
