INSTALL AND REMOVE INSTRUCTIONS:
InstallShield Installation
NOTE: Ensure that previously loaded driver versions were properly
uninstalled.
1. Unzip files to hard drive directory or floppy disk.
2. Press Start button.
3. Press Run.
4. Type in the (Path)\Setup.exe (Path depends on where files were
unzipped).
5. Press OK to run setup.
6. Click the Next and OK prompts as the installer progresses.
7. Choose to reboot system at the end of the install program.
NOTE: The system must be rebooted to properly install drivers.
Device Installation/Removal
This software is installed automatically by the Microsoft Windows
Hardware Installation Wizard. When the hardware is detected, the
Wizard will prompt for the disk containing the device information
file. Cancel out of the Hardware Install Wizard, and run the Setup
program once the computer finishes booting.
Factory Install/ Driver Install
To run the utility before login for installation along with the OS, use
the RunServicesOnce key under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\
Windows\CurrentVersion.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\
RunServiceOnce needs to have a value, ADI_Install, whose data is
<Path to Setup files>\Setup.exe -s entered in the registry.
This entry can be made using the MSBATCH.INF file during installation
of the OS.
The Setup.exe program is copying the files needed by the Hardware Setup
Wizard to automatically load the driver. Because the RunServicesOnce
key launches programs asynchronously, the developer writing the install
script must make sure this setup has completed before the Hardware
Wizard starts. The amount of time required for the setup application to
finish will depend on where the setup application is running from.
For example, it takes approximately 15 seconds to run from a hard
drive.
To run the utility after login for installation along with the OS, use
the RunOnce key under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce
needs to have a value, ADI_Install, whose data is <Path to Setup files>
\Setup.exe -s entered in the registry.
This entry can be made using the MSBATCH.INF file during installation
of the OS.
The developer writing the install script will need to cancel out of the
Hardware Wizard when it detects a board and is requesting the drivers.
The RunOnce key will then execute the setup just after windows finishes
booting. The system will need to be rebooted to finish the install
using this registry key.
Device Removal
1. Go to Start\Settings\Control Panel.
2. Go to the Add/Remove programs icon and double-click on the
SoundMAXVxD uninstall.
This procedure will remove all files loaded at install, and the
installer will need to be run again before the sound system will work.
