You will be able to move forward and back through the installation process by choosing
the
Next
and
Back
buttons at the bottom of the window.
•
A number of options will appear during the installation process. You must select the
options that tell the program:
o
You wish it to search for a driver.
If you do not tell it to search for a driver, it will display a list that you will have
to search through yourself. This list will be long and hard to understand, and it
might not contain the correct driver.
o
You will specify the location (or one of the locations) to search.
The program normally will not search on “removable media” such as a floppy
disk. You must tell it in advance that you wish it to do so.
o
The location to search is a folder on the floppy disk in drive A.
The Wireless Adapter Driver disk contains three folders. When the program
displays a text input box for specifying a location, type in the name of the folder
that corresponds to your version of Windows. Type a:\win2k if you are using
Windows 2000. Type a:\win98 if you are using Windows 98 or Windows ME.
Type a:\winxp if you are using Windows XP.
•
Always read everything in the window carefully, and make sure the correct options are
selected, before choosing
Next
.
•
Avoid common mistakes. Be sure to —
o
Insert the disk at a suitable time (either when the program window appears, or
when you type a folder name into the location box).
o
Insert the Wireless Adapter Driver disk (and not the Wireless Adapter Utility
disk).
o
Type a backslash [\] after “a:” when specifying the location of the driver (do not
type a slash [/]).
