  *** IMPORTANT ***
  If a previous version of the Port Replicator driver is present on your PC, be sure to 
  uninstall it prior to installing the new driver. Refer to step 2 for instructions on 
  uninstalling the drivers.

     the Port Replicator is disconnected from the PC.
  2. Double-click on the "SETUP.EXE" file from the CD to run the setup application.

     rebooted, connect the USB cable from the Targus Port Replicator into the USB port of 
     your PC. This will initiate the hardware detection process and may take several minutes.

     configured, you may begin using the Port Replicator.

4.   Known Issues / Limitations 

  1.  Legacy software written to address physical com port directly will not function with
      the virtual com port of the Port Replicator.
  2.  Serial device support is generally limited to mice and modems. Serial device support     
      beyond mice and modems is limited.
  3.  Serial PDA cradles will not sync after suspending a machine unless the SERIAL option      
      under Hot-Sync is uncheck prior to suspending and recheck after resuming.
  4.  Multiple Targus Port Replicators installed on the same platform will cause the       
      Ethernet drivers to conflict. 
  5.  Programmable PS2 keyboards and PS2 mice may not function properly on the PS2 port's 
      of the Port Replicator.
  6.  Parallel storage devices may not function properly on the parallel port of the Port
      Replicator. 
  7.  Some printer install applications will not recognize the virtual parallel port
      installed by the Targus Port Replicator. Manual printer port configuration is required 
      for these instances.
  8.  Upon resuming from STANDBY or HIBERNATE, the serial port will be shut off. To re-enable
      the serial port, you must remove and re-insert the PAEPR090 or reboot your system.
