M-Audio 121002 Delta Driver Software Installation for PC, Windows XP,2000, and ME Installation

3.Select the PCI slot where you will install your Delta 1010LT PCI host card. Make sure the slot is a PCI slot. If you don't know what "PCI slot" means, check the owner’s manual for your computer. PCI slots are distinguishable from ISA slots by being shorter and set back farther from the outside of the computer, however some newer computers have only PCI slots.

4.Before removing the Delta 1010LT PCI host card from its protective anti-static bag, touch the metal power supply case of the computer in order to dissipate any static electricity your body may have accumulated. You might want to pick up a grounding wrist strap (available from electronics stores like Radio Shack) if you want to be doubly sure you aren't carrying a static charge that could damage the card.

5.Remove the metal bracket that covers the access hole on the back of the computer. This bracket is usually fastened to the computer with a single screw.

6.Position the Delta 1010LT PCI host card over the target PCI slot and fit the card loosely over it with the card in the upright position. Press the card gently but firmly downward into the slot until the card is completely and squarely seated in the slot. If the card seems difficult to seat, a slight rocking motion may help.

7.Screw the Delta 1010LT PCI host card’s metal bracket down into the screw hole on the back of your computer using the screw you removed in step 5 above.

8.Place the cover back on your computer.

IMPORTANT: Complete the attachment of your Delta 1010LT breakout cables to the PCI card before powering up your computer. Never attach a breakout cable to the PCI card while the computer is on. Doing so could damage the PCI card and void the warranty.

With your computer turned off, it is now time to connect the Delta 1010LT breakout cables to the PCI host card that you have just installed. You may at this time also want to connect to audio gear that you using in conjunction with your Delta 1010LT.

Delta Driver Software Installation - for PC

The Delta 1010LT system includes a driver CD for Windows XP/2000/ME/98/95/NT (and Macintosh, too), containing all Windows drivers and Delta Control Panel software. To install these on your system, please follow these steps:

Windows XP,2000, and ME Installation

1.After installing the Delta 1010LT hardware, boot your system and start Windows. During the Windows boot procedure, new hardware will be automatically detected by the Add New Hardware Wizard announcing “New Hardware Found.” Click ‘Next>’.

2.The ‘Add New Hardware Wizard’ will now ask how you want to find the driver. "Search for the best driver for your device" is already selected. Click ‘Next>’.

3.Windows will give you a selection of locations to search. Make sure that only “Choose a Path” is checked, or click on the check box to do so. Insert the Driver CD into your CD ROM drive. Type in the drive letter of your CD drive (we will assume here that it is D:\) and the path to the Delta drivers, which will be D:\Delta Series\Wdm. Click ‘Next>’.
