INSTALL AND REMOVE INSTRUCTIONS:
The Setup utility is not included in this release.
Installation Requirements
* In order to add/remove this driver to an NT installation,
you must have Administrator privilege.
* PCI bus-mastering must be enabled in your system BIOS for
optimal driver performance. Consult your system's main
board-specific instructions.
* A system restart is generally required to add/remove the
driver. Note that following installation, you can skip the
restart if you take the properties of the newly installed
driver and select the Details tab of the driver's property
page. This procedure will complete the ADISynth's
registration process and it will be ready to use without a
restart. Restart is always required to move the driver
however.
If you are upgrading from a previous release of ADISynth, you must
remove the previous release and restart NT prior to installing this
version. See Device Removal section below for instructions on removing
the existing device. Note that during installation of this release,
you will be prompted to use new or current driver files. Always select
new files.
If you have not previously installed a version of ADISynth on your
system, the driver will install and prompt you to restart the system.
Restart the system and follow the directions in the Device Installation
section.

Recording a Response File
You have the option of letting InstallShield create the response file
for you. Simply run your setup with the Setup.exe -r command line
parameter. InstallShield will record all your setup choices in
Setup.iss and place the file in the Windows folder.
Playing Back a Response File
After you have created the setup and the response file, you are ready
to run the setup in silent mode using InstallShield Silent. When
running a setup in silent mode, be aware that no messages are
displayed. Instead, a log file named Setup.log captures setup
information, including whether the setup was successful. You can
review the log file and determine the result of the setup.
To launch InstallShield Silent, run Setup.exe with the -s option.
Download Driver Pack
After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.
Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).
If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.
Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.
Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.
Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.
From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.
Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.
Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
