Installing the Snap Camera Software
Before attaching the Snap Camera for the first time, you must first install the software drivers
and the Creative Live!® Cam Center™ suite of applications included on the Snap Camera
software CD.
Make the installation files on the CD available to the FlipStart
Because your FlipStart does not include an optical disk drive, you have three options for making
the software installation files on the CD available to run on your FlipStart:
Attach an external USB CD/DVD drive to your FlipStart,
and then insert the software installation CD.
Use a second computer with an optical drive to copy the contents of the CD
to an external USB storage device, such as a flash drive or a hard disk. Then,
attach the external storage device to the USB port on your FlipStart.
Using a second computer connected to the same local network as your
FlipStart, insert the CD and copy the contents of the CD to a shared folder
on that computer. Then, use your FlipStart to access the shared folder
over the local network to copy the files to the FlipStart’s hard disk.
Run the software installation program
From the software CD or software folder, double-click the1. Setup.exe file located in the
SnapCameraSetup folder. Depending on the method you use to make the software
installation files available, the setup program may start automatically.
Note: For custom installations, you are only required to install the Snap Camera
drivers. You are not required to install the Creative Live! Cam software suite.
Follow the on-screen instructions. Attach the Snap Camera only when prompted.2.
Note: You may be warned by Windows that you are installing “unsigned drivers.” You
may safely ignore this warning, and proceed with installation.
Restart your computer. After the computer has restarted, double-click the LIve! Cam3.
Manager icon in the system tray to use the software.
