Drivers, Utilities and Software Installation

Support CD:

This mainboard will be shipped with a Support CD which contains those

necessary driver files, Application Softwares and some helpful utilities.

It is a user-friendly, auto-run CD which will open itself up in a CD-ROM

automatically.

This chapter is devoted to describing the installations of all these

essential drivers and utilities on Windows 98SE, Windows ME, Win-

dows 2000 and Windows XP. The installation procedures for all these

operating systems are programed into an auto-run mode. What users

have to do is read and follow the pop-up instructions. We therefore

take the installation on Windows XP as the general illustration hereby.
