- I found that when I clicked on the *.inf file to download it from within
- Netscape it didn't save as a binary file, instead it displayed on Netscape.
- When I saved it using the File Save As command from Netscape, Windows 95
- didn't recognize it. Instead highlight and copy the text from the *.inf file
- displayed on your browser and paste it into Wordpad, then save it as the *.inf
- file to the windows/inf directory and use the Add new Hardware settings in the
- control panel.
