Appendix B. Additional Information

B-1. Checking DirectX Version and Video Information

When installing your USBCam2, you will be prompted to install the latest version of
Microsoft's DirectX files on your system (DirectX 9). We strongly recommend that you
install these files as earlier versions of DirectX prior to DirectX 8.1 are not compatible
with USBCam2. In the event you experience video problems with USBCam2, please
verify that your system has properly installed DirectX version 8.1 or later by performing
the steps below.
Video quality and performance is also affected by the amount of video memory available.
By running dxdiag.exe, as documented below, and checking the Display tab, you can
verify the amount of video memory available on your graphics card.
