Removing the Previous Version of Maestro
The previous version of Maestro software must be removed from the com-
puter before a new version can be installed. The software can be manually
removed by following the steps below. It can also be automatically
removed by initiating the new software installation procedure.
CAUTION If you are removing v1.3, v1.4 or v1.5 software, you must use the Adminis-
trator account (login). If you are removing v1.2 or prior software, you must
use the account (login) used when that software was installed.
Follow these steps to remove the previous version of Maestro:
1. Using the Windows Control Panel, select Add or Remove Programs.
2. Remove the Maestro Software Package from the computer. This step
will not remove user data from the computer.
3. Close the Windows Control Panel window.
Installing from the Maestro Software CD
The example shown in Figure 55 on page 127 shows the screen that will
appear, when the installation auto runs from the CD or is started man-
ually, and a previously installed version of the Maestro software is
automatically detected. You will be prompted to confirm the removal
of the software before proceeding with the installation of the new soft-
ware.
