Revolution 5.1 and the Windows Sound System (XP)
The Revolution 5.1's Windows Multimedia drivers will allow you to use the Revolution as
your Windows system sound device. If the Revolution is the only audio device installed
in your computer, then Windows will "select" it automatically. Otherwise, you may need
to tell Windows to use the Revolution. To check your Windows Audio setting and select
the M-Audio Revolution 5.1:
1. Go to the Start menu, and then choose "Control Panel."
2. Open "Sounds and Audio Devices," then click the "Audio" tab.
3. Under "Sound Playback," the default device should say "Revolution." If it does
not say "Revolution," then drop down the list of devices and select "Revolution."
4. Click "Apply," then click "OK." Close your Control Panel—you're done!
Windows 2000 Installation
1. Power on your computer and place the Revolution 5.1 Drivers CD-ROM in your

you should install the software driver before doing so. You will see the screen
displayed here. Click "Next" to continue.
2. Click "Install" to continue.
