5. SOFTWARE SETUP

You should always use the latest operating system and updates when using new

hardware to ensure full compliancy. For Windows 95, you must use OSR 2.0 or

later. For Windows NT 4.0, you must use Service Pack 3.0 or later.

When you start Windows for the first time after the installation of your motherboard,

Windows 98 will detect the onboard audio and video chips and may attempt to in-

stall a driver from its system registry. When prompted to restart, select No and then

follow the normal setup procedures later in this section.

IMPORTANT:

Selecting No for the initial restart prompt is a necessary step

because Windows may load an older display driver that is incompatible with the

onboard VGA chip. Always use the driver available on the Support CD or an

applicable driver update from your vendor.

NOTE: The screen displays in this and the following section may not reflect exactly
