Driver installation under Windows XP/2000/98

After installing your ADDI-DATA board you have to reboot your PC.
Once rebooted, a message appears on the screen indicating that a new hardware
component has been found in the system.
The PC requires information contained in the inf files delivered on the ADDI-
DATA CD-ROM and asks for the path where they are saved.
The .inf files contains:
– the name of the board
– the name of the manufacturer
– the hardware type of the board (all ADDI-DATA boards are considered as
multifunction boards)
The inf files are stored on the CD-ROM in the directory CD/INF
IMPORTANT!
Make sure you also indicated the directory for the used operating
system.
In case you only enter the path to the INF directory, the operating system may
randomly choose one directory and thus install the wrong INF files.
Enter the directory of the used operating system:
- INF/Win2000_XP/Addi2000.inf for Windows 2000 and Windows XP
- INF/Win98/Addi98.inf for Windows 98
To install the standard software, proceed as described in the former paragraph.
(Installation under Windows 3.11 and Windows NT)
