MC W770/22.1 eng 7/23/04
Wireless USB adapter
Question
I have plugged in the wireless
USB adapter and completed
the installation in Windows
without installing the software
from the bypacked CD-ROM first.
What should I do?
I have followed the instructions for
use and the instructions shown on
the installation software exactly
but cannot successfully install.
Since I have changed the USB port
for the wireless USB adapter I
have longer connection times from
my MC W770 audio system to the
PC.
