1. RUNNING THE INSTALLATION PROGRAM

under Windows 3.1/DOS or Windows 95.
To set up your drive in Windows 3.1/DOS, run INSTALL.EXE at the
DOS prompt.
To set up your drive in Windows 95, run SETUP.EXE in Windows 95.

show the System Properties dialog box.
b. Select the Device Manager tab in the System Properties dialog
box.
c. Double-click the appropriate item e.g. "Sound, video and game
controllers" to display the devices installed in your system.
d. Double-click the device you wish to update (e.g. Creative
Labs Sound Blaster 16 or AWE-32).The Properties dialog box

j. Choose Close to exit the System Properties dialog box.

3. MSCDEX.EXE DRIVER
To use your CD-ROM drive under Windows 3.1 or DOS, the
Microsoft CD-ROM extension driver (MSCDEX.EXE) must be loaded.
The installation allows you to search for this driver in your
system. It will then copy this driver to your <dir>\DRV directory
and place a command in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file to load this
driver when your system boots up.
Note : <dir> is your target installation directory.
If you do not have the MSCDEX.EXE driver in your system,option 2
allows you to add a remarked statement in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
If you do so, you will then need to obtain this driver from your
vendor and copy it to your <dir>\DRV sub-directory. Finally,
remember to remove "REM" from the command that loads the
MSCDEX.EXE driver in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
