Versions of Windows
Lexicon Studio requires Windows 95 A or B. Studio is not compatible with Windows 95 V0. To
determine the version of Windows you are running, follow these steps:
1. In the Control Panel, double-click System.
2. Click the General tab.
3. Locate the version number under the System heading, then refer to the following table:
Version Version of Windows
4.00.950 Windows 95 V. 0
4.00.950A Windows 95 plus the Service Pack 1 Update, or OEM Service Release 1.
4.00.950B OEM Service Release 2 (OSR2)
4.00.950C OEM Service Release 2.5 (OSR2.5)
4.10.1650 Beta 3 Current Beta version of Windows 98
As of the release of this manual, Windows 98 was not released. Lexicon has, however, tested with
this version of Windows, and plans to support it on release. Upgrade to Windows 95 A, B or C, as
necessary.
High Performance Systems
Popular software packages like Cubase VST, Logic Audio and Digital Performer all show perfor-
mance improvements with high CPU speeds and additional RAM. A high performance system
benefits from the following:
• Fast CPU — Intel is the best PC choice. CPUs from other manufacturers often don’t perform as
wellatthesameratedclockspeedsandmayhavevariantimplementationsofimportantsections
like the FPU (Floating Point Unit).
• A system “boot” drive and a separate drive for audio
• A reliable video card with current drivers. Some cards offer acceleration done in such a way as
to“hog”thePCIbusandcreatedatalogjams.AcomputerofferingAGP(AdvancedGraphicPort)
capability for the graphics card is preferable as it gets the video off of the PCI bus.
