Printing If you encounter problems when printing from Moving & Improving, you should first check that your printer is properly set up, paying especial attention to its dots per inch and orientation settings. If any problem you encounter occurs whilst printing from Adobe Acrobat, you may find a solution on Adobe’s web site at http://www.adobe.com/. If your printer is properly configured and you are still encountering problems, you will need to obtain updated drivers from the manufacturer of your printer. These can normally be downloaded free of charge from the internet. Uninstalling Moving & Improving can be uninstalled by selecting Start, Settings, Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs/Moving & Improving then the Add/Remove button. TROUBLESHOOTING Installation Moving & Improving needs Adobe Acrobat and Microsoft® Media Player® to be installed on your machine.

Type D:\BBC\Booklet.hlp (if D is the drive letter of your CD-ROM) in the box labeled Open, then click OK. When the Booklet opens, click the Trouble Shooting option. Problems with video and audio replay Moving & Improving needs Microsoft Media Player to replay video and audio. If you encounter problems with your video or audio replay you should try reinstalling Media Player by running the program “mpfull” from your CD-ROM. If you have reinstalled Media Player but are still having problems there is probably an incompatibility between the software controlling your display and/or audio cards and Microsoft Media Player. You will need to get updated driver software from your computer manufacturer, or the manufacturer(s) of your sound and/or display cards. To find out your cards make and model details click Start from the Windows desktop, then Settings, then Control Panel, then System and then click the Device Manager Tab. This will display a list of the hardware comprising your system. Double click the Sound, Video and Game Controller icon and also the Display adapters icon and information on your cards will be displayed. Updated driver software for your cards should be available for free download from the manufacturers' web sites.
