This is the fully functional version of MediaLab.   Download and run the set up program.  Afterwards, when you run MediaLab for the first time it will instruct you as to how to obtain a license for that machine.   Licensing is required for MediaLab to run and can usually be done the same day.

Be sure to read the license agreement and disclaimers during the set-up procedure. Also, be sure to read the readme.txt file for notes regarding installation, set-up and system requirements. You can download the most recent readme.txt file (above) before downloading MediaLab if you like.

Download mlab3.exe (11 Mb).

If you don't have Access 97:

In order to create and edit MediaLab experiments, you must have Microsoft Access 97. If you do not have Access 97 installed, and you do not want to purchase it (it comes with Office 97), then you can download the following "run-time" version provided by Microsoft at no charge (yes, it's completely legal). After unzipping the file, and running the set-up program, all the functionality MediaLab needs will be available. You won't ever actually run Access by itself, MediaLab will just use the files it needs.

*Workstations that will be used just for running experiments and collecting data do not require Access. Access is required only for creating and editing experiments.

*Check out the Access97 readme!.txt file for two critical setup notes. You might want to print this and have it handy when installing access97.zip. The most important point is that a copy of the file system.mdw should be located in the same folder as the file msaccess.exe.

Download access97.zip (10.3 Mb).
