Installing NV2

 

A Windows style installation process gives you control over the installation folder, and whether NV2 should be installed for all Windows users or just the current Windows user. The installation will add NewViews to your Start Programs menu as well.

 

The downloaded New Views installation file will have a name like nv2.10.3.20080421-win32-ix86.exe. The exact name will vary as the version changes. The size is approximately 100MB.

 

  • From your Windows Desktop, go to the location of the downloaded NV2 program file.
  •  
    Locate the NewViews installation file in a Windows Explorer. This installation program will be found in the folder where you downloaded it. It has a name like nv2.xx.x.xxxxxxxx-win32-ix86.exe. The exact name will differ depending on the version downloaded.
  • THIS IS IMPORTANT FOR WINDOWS VISTA USERS.
    Press SHIFT and hold it while you right-click the installation file. 
  • If installing on Windows XP, a command menu will pop up. 
    If installing on Windows Vista, a command menu will pop up as shown below.
 
 
  • Click Run as..., Run as administrator or Run as Other User.
    The menu item will be Run as... on Windows XP, Run as administrator on Windows Vista, or Run As Other User on other Windows versions. If the Run As command is disabled contact your organization's IT department. Otherwise a Windows dialog will pop up.
  • On Windows Vista the installation should now continue.  Go to Click OK.
  • On Windows XP click the following user: radio button.
    • A Windows dialog pops up asking "Which user account do you want to use to run this program?" Below it are buttons.
    • Click on the following user: radio button.
    • Select Administrator from the drop-down list of users. If administrator doesn't appear in the drop-down list, type it in. 
    • Enter the administrator password.
      You may have to get the administrator password from your IT department, or have your IT department perform the installation.
    • Enter the Domain: if any. If Domain: appears you also have to specify it. Consult your IT department for assistance.
  • Click OK.
  • The installation program should run under the administrator user.
  • The installation process will start automatically in a few seconds.  
 
 
  • When the installation is run, it will search for an existing NV2 installation, and failing that, an installation of DOS NewViews (NV1). If one is found, it will be offered as the default folder during the installation, but it can be changed to any folder of your choosing. 
    NOTE: Installing NV2 in the same folder as NV1 will not affect NV1 in any way; no NV1 files are deleted or overwritten. Both versions of NewViews can be run from the same folder with no conflicts. 

    But we recommend that you install NV2 on your C drive in a folder named NV2 as shown below  
 
 
  • After the installation is finished, click on Exit.

 

  • The following item is added to your Start, Programs menu:
    •  
      NewViews 2.0 program group
      In this group the following items appear:
      • Demobooks         - the demonstration set of books
      • Manual                - the link to the online help file
      • NV1 Import          - used to import books from NV1
      • Database Utilities - a diagnostic utility
      • Register               - used to register the NV2 program
      • Server                 - starts the multi-user server
      • Workstation         - starts the workstation
 
NewViews NV2 - the rock solid platform to build your business on!
