(1)

What to do if you don't see the picture screen when connecting the USB cable to your
PC to run the MagicViewprogram.

▷

or a question mark, right click the mouse and choose the "Driver Update" menu to
locate the driver that has already been installed on the PC. If other drivers are installed
on the PC, The MagicViewcan recognize them first. Press the "Change Device" button
and choose "PhiontechOC-300 Video Camera."

"Video Mixing Renderer9" or "Error 80040273": What to do if you cannot initialize
"Video Mixing Rendering."

▷

verify your DirectX version, go to the menu, click "Start\Execute", enter "Dxdiag" in the
text window. Once the information window is open, click on the"system tab" and you'll
see the DirectX version that is installed on your computer. If you do not have DirectX9.0
on your PC, install the DirectX9.0 available on the CD.

(3)

What to do if you still have a problem, although you have DirectX9.0 on your PC, set
the graphic accelerator to maximum.
