Reinstalling device drivers
When you reinstall device drivers, you are changing the
current configuration of your computer. Reinstall device
drivers only if you know that it is necessary to do so to correct
a problem with your computer. Copies of the device drivers
that come preinstalled on your Aptiva PC are located on the
Aptiva Product Recovery and Diagnostics CD in a folder
called Drivers.
If you need to reinstall a device driver, refer to the Drivers
folder on the CD and choose the appropriate device
subfolder. Reinstall the device driver using one of the
following methods:
±
In the device subfolder, look for a README.TXT file or
other file with the .TXT extension. Sometimes this file
might be named after the operating system, such as
WIN98.TXT. The text file contains information on how to
reinstall that device driver.
or
±
Use the Add New Hardware program (located in the
Windows Control Panel) to reinstall the device driver. Not
all device drivers can be reinstalled in this manner. If the
device subfolder contains a file with an .INF extension, you
can use the Add New Hardware program. In the Add New
Hardware program, when prompted for the device driver
you want to install, click Have Disk and Browse. Then
select the appropriate device driver file from the Aptiva
Product Recovery and Diagnostics CD.
or
±
In the device subfolder, look for a SETUP.EXE file. Double-
click the SETUP.EXE file and follow the instructions on the
screen.
