===Installation Process===
**1. Decide which version of XP to use:** XP Home is the best value and can be purchased as an upgrade from Win9X for under $100.
''SUMMARY: USE XP HOME XP VERSION, BUT DO A FRESH INSTALL!''
**2. Decide which Disk Format to use for our disks:** Here you have a choice between NTFS and FAT32.
''SUMMARY : System Drive NTFS, Audio Drives FAT32''
**3. Optimizing your XP install:** There are tons of great resources out there. One I like is http://www.tweakxp.com/tweakxp/performance_tweaks.asp. Keep in mind that for most people XP and PARIS will work well right out of the box. There's no need to go for the jugular when tweaking your machine. In general I would recommend that you simply work with your system for a while and figure out if it meets your needs in a stock configuration. I'm a big fan of KISS (Keep it simple), and hardcore tweaking can make things harder to debug later
''SUMMARY: Try the system out before you tweak. '' If it works for you, leave it alone :-)
**4. Install the PARIS XP drivers:** Download the PARIS BETA 3 Driver It's a really good idea to print out the install directions and follow them exactly, crossing off each step as you complete it. Many problems reported by users come from improper driver installation.
''SUMMARY: Follow the driver installation directions!''
**5. PARIS Pro 3.0 users: If you plan on installing Paris 3.0, you will need to update the PACE InterLok drivers before installing the Paris 3.0 software.** The latest version of these drivers is available on the Internet at: http://www.paceap.com/dldrvr.html Do not install PARIS 3.0 before you update the PACE DRIVERS!!!.
''SUMMARY: Update PACE Drivers before you install the PARIS 3.0 application!''
**6. Install the PARIS application:** When you install the PARIS application it's a really good idea to write down the path the installer is installing the application to now, especially if you are changing the location, or are installing an older version of PARIS. You'll need this info for the next step.
''SUMMARY: Know thy path and write it down.''
**7. Install the PARIS XP Effects Subsystem:** This one is fairly straightforward. Download the installer and run it. The installer suggests an installation path for PARIS 3.0. If you are running an older version of PARIS, or have installed PARIS to an alternate directory then you will need to enter the correct path. Here's the rub - if you get this path wrong it's just not going to work. The best strategy is to know exactly where the PARIS executable is, and to get the path right :-) This version of the subsystem is 1.05 (minimum version). Check the parisfaqs.com site from time to time to ensure that you always have the latest subsystem.
''SUMMARY: Know the path to the PARIS executable on your system before you install the subsystem!''
**8. The moment of truth - Starting the PARIS app:** For the vast majority of people this is just going to work. For those with Matrox Video Cards (especially multi head) there may be problems. Don't worry - there are solutions :-) The single biggest problem reported by users is ERROR 7/7. This means that the hardware is not functioning correctly, even though XP shows it as "functioning correctly.
**9. New Effects:** I get a lot of questions about running my new effects under PARIS XP. If you followed all the instructions and have the latest PARIS XP Effects Subsystem then all the new effects. I don't recommend running the "simple" example plug-ins under any version of Windows and have actually removed them from the site.
**10. New Stuff In the subsystem:** The new effects subsystem adds some plug-ins to your system. The plug-ins it adds are intended to support other new plug-ins in the future. There's nothing stopping you from using the mono and stereo high res meters that are included with the subsystem, or from using the two wires plugs. I'm not going to talk a lot about these plugs other than to say that neither the meters nor wires is "finished". They include only enough to act as building blocks for other plugs I will be releasing later.
