INSTALLING MS-DMT FOR THE FIRST TIME
The install program, INSTALL.EXE, by default installs to “C:\MS-DMT\”. The software may be
installed to any Windows directory on your computer using Windows XP. However, Do NOT
install the software under “C:\PROGRAM FILES\” when using either MS-Vista, MS-Windows 7,
MS-Windows 8 or later due to file access restrictions imposed with these operating systems and
be sure to install using Administrator rights.
NOTE: When running on native versions of Windows newer than Windows XP do NOT specify to run as
a Windows XP SP3 application or anything else using Compatibility Mode emulation.
The required installation steps are:
1. Either directly install the distribution archive file MSDMTxxvxxxBxxxx_FI.ZIP in step 2 or
unzip into a temporary directory and proceed to step 2.
2. Run the INSTALL.EXE and accept the license agreement, then follow all screen prompts
through to completion of the install program.
3. If using the MSDMTxxvxxxBxxxx_FI.ZIP file, upon completion of the INSTALL.EXE the
Microsoft VS 2008PRO redistribution install (vcredist_x86.exe) will automatically start,
accept the license agreement, then follow all screen prompts through to completion.
NOTE: If the INSTALL.EXE used is not the most recent, then before running the MSDMT_xx.EXE file,
acquire the partial install archive (MSDMTxxvxxxBxxxx_PI.ZIP) and run its INSTALL.EXE, or just
unzip the contents of an update archive (MSDMTxxvxxxBxxxx_UD.ZIP) or run its INSTALL.EXE if one
exists, into the sub directory where MSDMT_xx.EXE was originally installed on your computer.
The software is now installed and awaiting configuration, skip the next section and proceed to
“REQUIRED FOLDERS”.
