5.When Windows starts, it will find a 2SP-PCI Controller and will ask you for a driver for this device. When prompted, insert the installation diskette into your floppy drive. After copying the necessary files from the diskette,Windows may restart your PC in order to complete the installation of the 2SP-PCI card. Any Plug and Play devices attached to the 2SP-PCI will now also be detected and installed. Windows XP may display a message to the effect that the drivers are not digitally signed. This warning can be ignored.

6.To view how Windows has installed the 2SP-PCI, open Windows' Device Manager. Please note that the 2SP-PCI will appear in Device Manager under two separate entries. The two serial ports will appear both under the Multifunction Adapters tree and under the Ports tree, while the Parallel port will appear under Ports only (see example below). Please use the appropriate listings if you wish to customize any of the 2SP-PCI card’s settings. Please note that changes to default settings may be required by users connecting the 2SP-PCI card to a non-printer peripheral (see reverse). Users connecting a printer should use default settings.
