4 Windows 95/98 Installation

Windows 95/98 maintains a registry of all known hardware installed in your computer. Inside this hardware registry Windows keeps track of all of your system resources, such as I/O locations, IRQ levels, and DMA channels. The "Add New Hardware Wizard" utility was designed to add new hardware and update this registry.

An "INF" configuration file is included with the MPAP-100 to allow easy configuration in the Windows 95/98 environment. Windows uses the "INF" file to determine the system resources required by the MPAP-100, searches for available resources to fill the boards requirements, and then updates the hardware registry with an entry that allocates these resources. The Syncdrive DLL and VxD can then be used to access the card.

4.1 Using the "Add New Hardware" Wizard

The following instructions provide step-by-step instructions on installing the MPAP-100 in Windows 98 using the "Add New Hardware" wizard. Windows 95 uses a similar process to load the INF file from a floppy disk with slightly different dialog boxes.

1.After inserting an MPAP-100 for the first time, the "Add New Hardware" wizard will start. Click the "Next" button.
