************************************************************
* 3. INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE
************************************************************
************************************************************
* 3a. INSTALLING THE MAIN DISTRIBUTION PACKAGE
************************************************************
1. Check the System Requirements. Windows 95 or Windows 98
must be fully installed and running on the system prior
to running this software.
2. Close any running applications. You may experience some
difficulties if you don't do this.
3. Run the InstallShield installation program.
4. You will be prompted to agree to the license agreement.
If you do not agree, the Installer will exit prior to
extracting any files.
5. The INF files will be copied to the target directory
C:\Program Files\Intel\IntelINF by default. If desired,
change the target directory by selecting 'Browse.' This
directory will henceforth be referred to as <INF
Installation Directory>
6. The INF files are now contained within two subdirectories
under the <INF Installation Directory>: \Win98 and
\Win95.
************************************************************
* 3b. INSTALLING THE WINDOWS 98 INF FILES PRIOR TO OS
* INSTALLATION
************************************************************
The Windows 98 distribution CD contains a setup directory
with all the base OS setup files (*.CAB) and installation
program (SETUP.EXE).
The name of the directory can vary depending on the
distribution CD. (i.e. \WIN98\)
1. Copy the OS installation files from the Windows 98 setup
directory to a directory on the hard disk. This
procedure requires a large amount of disk storage. It
is important to make sure this is enough disk space
before beginning the copy process. This directory shall
be referred to as the <WIN98 Setup Directory>.
2. Copy the Windows 98 INF files from the <INF Installation
Directory> to the setup directory identified in Step 1
above.
3. Run SETUP.EXE to install Windows 98.
************************************************************
* 3c. INSTALLING THE WINDOWS 95 INF FILES PRIOR TO OS
* INSTALLATION
************************************************************
The Windows 95 distribution CD contains a setup directory
with all the base OS setup files (*.CAB) and installation
program (SETUP.EXE). The name of the directory can vary
depending on the distribution CD. (i.e. \WIN95\)
1. Copy the OS installation files from the Windows 95 setup
directory to a directory on the hard disk. This
procedure requires a large amount of disk storage. It
is important to make sure this is enough disk space
before beginning the copy process. This directory shall
be referred to as the <WIN95 Setup Directory>.
2. Copy the Windows 95 INF files from the <INF Installation
Directory> to the setup directory identified in Step 1
above.
3. Run SETUP.EXE to install Windows 95.
************************************************************
* 4. VERIFYING INSTALLATION OF THE SOFTWARE
************************************************************
NOTE: This procedure is common to both Windows 98 and
Windows 95 systems.
Run Device Manager to verify correct installation and usage
of the INF files.
1. Click on Start
2. Select Settings
3. Select Control Panel
4. Double click on System icon
5. Click on Device Manager tab
6. Click on View devices by Connection button
7. Click on Plug and Play BIOS

************************************************************
It is assumed that the system requirements from Section 2

Issue: Distribution package program software fails to
install.
Solution: The distribution package program is a Windows
SETUP executable. It assumes that there is
sufficient disk space to execute the program in
the <TEMP> directory (typically
C:\WINDOWS\TEMP).
If this problem occurs, free up some disk space
in the TEMP area and re-install the software
following the procedures in Section 3.
Installing the Software.
Issue: System locks up during Device Manager Remove or
during restart.
Solution: System lockup can occur during Restart as a
result of several possible system issues. In
the event of system lockup, restart the machine
and view Device Manager. If devices are listed
properly and system experiences no further
problems, then .INF file restore process was
successful. If devices are not configured
correctly try re-running the procedures outlined
in Section 3.
If this does not fix problems or further
problems are experienced, re-install the
operating system.
