Manually Updating A Driver - Allied Telesis AT-2700FX Installation Manual

Manually Updating a Driver

This section contains the procedure for updating a regular or LBFO
network adapter driver on a Microsoft Windows 2000, 2003, or XP system.
You can perform the procedure using the Allied Telesyn Installation CD or,
if the system does not have a CD driver, a driver installation disk. For
instructions on how to create a driver installation disk, refer to "Creating a
Driver Installation Disk" on page 68.
Note
Since the regular adapter driver and LBFO driver are considered
different drivers, you cannot use this procedure to convert a regular
driver already installed on a system into an LBFO driver, or vice
versa. If one of the adapter drivers is already installed, you must
uninstall it prior to installing the other driver. For background
information on the two drivers, refer to "Load Balancing and Fail-
over Protection" on page 39 and "Choosing a Network Adapter Card
Driver" on page 58.
Note
You should have the Windows Installation CD or floppy disk(s)
available. You may be prompted to copy support files for networking.
To update a driver, perform the following procedure:
1. From the desktop, right-click the My Computer icon and select
Properties from the menu, as shown in Figure 36.
