Installing AutoStar Suite

As stated earlier I installed from a network share but you can of course just insert the Meade cd into the cd drive

(ignore the run menu in the Windows 7 environment as this is all going into the XP virtual machine)

I’m not going to give a lot of screenshots for this as it looks and feels just like the installation into a Windows XP

PC. The steps are listed below:

 Click on “Setup.exe”

 The License screen appears, click “Accept” and “Next”

 The Install Folder displays, click “Next” if your happy with the location (I’d stick to default locations to

keep the virtual environment as simple as possible).

 The selection screen for the GSC catalogue displays, that one is up to you (but bear in mind Hard Disk

Space)

 Click to Start the AS install

 The Text2Speech License screen displays Click “OK”

 Next the .net install screen displays Note the comment to NOT reboot if requested and click “OK”

 Click “Yes” to install .net Framework 1.1

 The license agreement for .net displays click the “I Agree” option and the “Install” button

 When .net 1.1 installation completes click “OK”

 The suite now installs the LPI Drivers read the Do Not Reboot warning and click “OK”

 On the Setup Type screen choose your option “Complete” is default then click “Next”

 On the Ready to install screen click “Next”

 You will receive a Windows Logo testing warning Click “Continue Anyway”

 When the LPI drivers install complete screen displays Click “Finish”

 Click on the Autostar icon and when the application opens click “Help” – “About”

With my cd the Autostar version is

shown to be 3.08:

Next we will install Envisage
