1. First you will have to visit the Vent website to download the program. I am not going to go through the install cycle on your platform, Vent has that in it's documentation.

2.Click on Download and Click on Windows i386 - 32bit - Win2000, XP, 2003, Vista, 2008 (Version 3.0.5)
Configuration:
1.Once installed open Vent. Click the arrow next to the User Name field to setup your user name. Click New and type in a User Name. The Phonetic field is optional and allows the server to properly announce your arrival and disembark on the server. Click OK.
2.Click the arrow next to the Server field to setup the server and port addresses. Click New and type in a Server name. Click OK. In the main Connection Editor window enter the server address and port number from the Guild info tab into the field. Click OK.
3.Click the Setup Button on the main Vent window.Check the Push-To-Talk Hotkey box. You will then need to consider your key or key combo that you wish to use. I personally prefer the tilda/grave button. Note anytime you have to enter this menu to adjust your settings you will not be able to talk across Vent until you cancel/OK out of this window.
Congratulations you have completed the minimum settings for Vent. Click the Connect button and say hi!
I hope this has helped and I will amend and add to this document as questions come up and time allows.
