To install Intel SpeedStep Support

If you've installed a retail version of Windows, you'll need to install the Intel
SpeedStep technology Applet if you have a dual-speed Pentium III processor.
Pentium III processors featuring Intel SpeedStep technology can dynamically
switch clock frequency and voltage, depending on whether the computer is
running on batteries or is plugged into AC power. When running in Battery
Optimized Mode, the processors run at a lower frequency and lower voltage,
significantly lowering CPU power consumption while still delivering high
performance. When a user plugs into an AC outlet, the notebook can
automatically switch to Maximum Performance Mode. You can also select
Maximum Performance Mode even while running on batteries. Switch modes
and set preferences by clicking the icon at the bottom of the screen.
The Intel SpeedStep files are available on Intel's web site.
1. After downloading the software, double-click the downloaded
SETUP.EXE.
2 When prompted, click NEXT.
3. Click FINISH to reboot your computer.
Upon successful installation, a SpeedStep icon appears on the bottom right
corner of the taskbar.

2. Double-click CD-ROM drive.
3. Select the CD-ROM driver displayed, then click Properties.
4. Click Settings, then uncheck Auto Insert Notification.
5. Click OK to close the CD-ROM Properties window.
6. Click OK to close the System Properties window.
7. Click Yes to restart Windows 95.

To install touch pad support

If you've installed Windows 95, you'll need to install touch pad support. This
