Click on a computer icon to the right of an item to install an item (from top to the bottom) one at a time. After installing each item, you must reboot the system before proceeding with the next item on the list. The bottom icon with a CD on it allows you to view the entire contents of the CD.

2.When making a storage driver diskette by booting into a Driver CD, please set the SATA Configuration to "Compatible Mode" and configure

SATA as IDE in the BIOS Setup. After making the driver diskette, be sure to change the SATA settings back to your original settings.
