Before You Begin

To facilitate the installation of the enhanced display drivers and utility software, read
the instructions in this chapter carefully. The drivers for the AIMB-205 are located on
Advantech support website: http://support.advantech.com/Support/. The driver on
the support website will guide and link you to the utilities and drivers under a Win-
dows system. Updates are provided via Service Packs from Microsoft*.
Note! The driver files on the website are compressed. Do not attempt to install
the drivers by copying the files manually. You must download the files
and decompress them first. Also, please use the supplied SETUP pro-
gram to install the drivers.
Before you begin, it is important to note that most display drivers need to have the
relevant software application already installed in the system prior to installing the
enhanced display drivers. In addition, many of the installation procedures assume
that you are familiar with both the relevant software applications and operating sys-
tem commands. Review the relevant operating system commands and the pertinent
sections of your application software's user manual before performing the installa-
tion.
