Creating SNMPc 4.0 Vendor Disks August 8, 1995 We are now using Install Shield from Stirling Software. We have made an extensible installation script now. Your vendor disk must include the files vendor.txt, bitview.ini, and any compressed (.Z/.#) files listed in the bitview.ini file. The formats look like this: VENDOR.TXT--------------------------------------------------------- Selection 1 Selection 2 Selection 3 ------------------------------------------------------------------- The user is prompted with whatever is listed in this file. Then, it looks for the section in the bitview.ini file with the same label: BITVIEW.INI-------------------------------------------------------- [Selection 1] disk1=My Product Disk #1 file1=testing.z mib1=abc.mib mib2=xyz.mib hub1=enterprises.343*,abc.hub hub2=objectid.0,xyz.hub ico1=enterprises.343.1,abc.ico ico2=enterprises.343.2,def.ico ico3=objectid.0,xyz.ico dis1=1.3.4.2.3.4.3.2.3.5.3,Abc Device prog1=,Read Me,notepad.exe readme.txt, prog2=My Group,My Application,myapp.exe,apiexec\ [Selection 2] disk1=My Product Disk #1 disk2=My Product Disk #2 file1=stuff.1 file2=stuff.2 ... [Selection 3] ... ------------------------------------------------------------------- With all the entries in each section, the installer looks for each label with a sequential number after it (xxx1, xxx2, xxx3...). Compressed files should be made with the install shield compress program and are just directory tree images that will be expanded into the installed SNMPc directory. You can use the Install Shield splitter program to split your compressed file if it is too large to fit on a disk. You would then list with "disk#" and "file#" each of the disk names to prompt the user with, and what the compressed file names are. The disk name can be any text string. If the install script finds the file on the current disk, it will not prompt you for the next disk. in the CD version, it won't prompt you for anything since it can find all the files it needs. The mib# entries get added to names.txt, hub# get added to hubnames.txt ico# get added to autoico.txt, and dis# get added to discover.dat. The disk name can be any text string. You can also add program manager icons. You add them with "prog#" and the parameters are "group,name,command line,path" with no spaces. If you don't supply a program group, it will be put in the SNMPc directory. Paths are relative to the installed snmpc directory, so any program items you add should be under the SNMPc directory.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.
