Execute the setup.exe file by double clicking on it. This will launch the installation program. The<br />
installation wizard will guide you through the installation process. You will have to accept the license<br />

icons for the application. If you are not sure what to enter in the installation wizard screens then just<br />
press the “Next” button on every screen and the program will be installed to the default directories.<br />
After the program is installed you can either delete the setup.exe file or save it in case you have to<br />
reinstall the program.<br />

install the latest version of the DirectX. You will have to reboot the computer after you have installed<br />

or consider upgrading your sound card.<br />
If you started the application and did not have any error messages but still you do not hear your<br />
voice or you hear your voice without any delay or pitch shift then you have to adjust your sound system<br />
settings. (See: Configuring sound card.)<br />
