    IBM* SurePOS 32x PCI Serial Ports and Cashdrawer Installation Instructions
                              23 June 2003


  Below are the instructions to get the PCI Serial Ports and the IBM CashDrawer
  to install and work on the IBM SurePOS 32x machine for both Microsoft**
  Windows** 2000 and Microsoft Windows XP. 

===============================================================================

  Note: Before installing the drivers included in the sp32xpci.exe package, the
        Microsoft Windows operating system will display messages that it has
        found new hardware and the "Found New Hardware" wizard will prompt for
        the drivers.  Cancel any attempt to load a driver at this time.


1.  Place the file sp32xpci.exe in any location on the machine (for
    example: c:\temp) and run this self-extracting executable program.  Select
    a directory location to place extracted files into and click on 'Extract'. 

2.  Change to the directory the files were extracted to and run the
    program: sp32xins.exe.  This program will install the files in the
    appropriate windows location on the machine and update the Microsoft
    Windows configuration.


3.  On Microsoft Windows XP, the "Found New Hardware" windows will appear
    for the four "PCI Serial Port" devices.  For each prompt, select OK with
    the option to install the software automatically (Recommended).

    Note: During the installation for each PCI serial port, a "Hardware
          Installation" message stating that the driver has not passed
          Microsoft Windows Logo testing will be displayed.  Select
          'Continue' and then click on 'Finish' for each of these prompts.

   
4.  For both Microsoft Windows 2000 and Microsoft Windows XP, a "Found New
    Hardware" window will appear for the 'IBM SurePOS 32x CashDrawer Port'.
    Select OK with the option to install the software automatically
    (Recommended).

    You will be prompted for the file: cdportio.sys.  Select 'Browse' and
    choose the directory where the files were extracted to in step number 1
    above. Select the 'cdportio.sys' file and click on OK.

    Then click on 'Finish' when prompted.
   

After all the prompts for new hardware found are completed, the six serial
ports should be operational.

A successful install should have the following information in Device Manager:
