AIMB-760 User Manual 58
Chapter 4 Chipset Software Install Utility

4.1 Before you begin

To facilitate the installation of the enhanced display drivers and utility
software, read the instructions in this chapter carefully. The drivers for
the AIMB-760 are located on the software installation CD. The auto-run
function of the driver CD will guide and link you to the utilities and driv-
ers under a Windows system. The Intel® Chipset Software Installation
Utility is not required on any systems running Windows NT 4.0. Updates
are provided via Service Packs from Microsoft*.
Before you begin, it is important to note that most display drivers need to
have the relevant software application already installed in the system
prior to installing the enhanced display drivers. In addition, many of the
installation procedures assume that you are familiar with both the rele-
vant software applications and operating system commands. Review the
relevant operating system commands and the pertinent sections of your
application software’s user manual before performing the installation.

4.2 Introduction

The Intel® Chipset Software Installation (CSI) utility installs the Win-
dows INF files that outline to the operating system how the chipset com-
ponents will be configured. This is needed for the proper functioning of
the following features:
• Core PCI PnP services
• IDE Ultra ATA 100/66/33 and Serial ATA interface support
• USB 1.1/2.0 support (USB 2.0 driver needs to be installed separately
for Win98)
• Identification of Intel® chipset components in the Device Manager
Note: The files on the software installation CD are
compressed. Do not attempt to install the driv-
ers by copying the files manually. You must use
the supplied SETUP program to install the driv-
ers.
