3.At the Hardware Wizard screen, select the floppy drive as the source, then click the Next button. Select the Win2003 folder, then click the Next button.

4.Windows will display a warning message that states the driver has "not been signed". Select "Continue Anyway", then click Finish when pro mpted.

5.Remove the Driver Installation diskette from the floppy drive, then Shut down and restart the computer.
