Software Setup

Installing or Upgrading Device Drivers

To install optional hardware devices after the OS installation is complete, you must install the device drivers for the device you are installing.

If prompted for the I386 directory, replace the path specification with C:\I386, or use the Browse button of the dialog box to locate the I386 folder. This action points the OS to the appropriate drivers.
