GETTING STARTED  
How does the player work?  
What software will be required on my computer?  
For easy communication with your player, Windows Media Player,  
version 11 (WMP11) or later is recommended to manage your music  
files.  
Windows Media Player software is supplied free of charge with  
Microsoft Windows, but depending on the age of your computer, the  
version installed may not be version 11.  
A library of music files is created on a personal computer. These files  
are generally copied to the computer from music CDs (ripped). You  
can then select music within the library that you want to listen to on  
your personal MP3 player. Each time your MP3 player is connected, the  
player will check the computer library and add new tracks that you  
have marked to synchronise with the player.  
To check the version of Windows Media Player:  
Does the computer need to be a particular specification?  
Your computer should meet a minimum specification of -  
Open Windows Media Player (click Start>All programs>Windows  
Media Player)  
Once Windows Media Player is open, click Help>About Windows  
Processor minimum of Pentium 200MHz.  
Operating system Microsoft Windows XP, Vista or later.  
120MB or more of available hard disk space.  
A free USB port.  
Media Player.  
The version is shown on this screen. Version 11 or later is recommended,  
although earlier versions will function.  
If you need to upgrade to a newer version of Windows Media Player,  
iTunes:  
The iTunes Media Player is not recommended for managing the music  
files on your player.
