6.Installation and Configuration under Windows 98

6.1 Automatic Installation

Keep the Windows 98 installation CD handy, as it will be needed during installation.

1.If a device driver or application software are already installed for an ISDN Adapter, this driver or software (such as RVS-COM) should be uninstalled as per its manufacturer’s instructions in order to ensure proper installation of the new software.

In case you have installed the Windows 98 device driver for Version 1.0 of I-Surf USB, you must first uninstall this driver using the Uninstall program (rem_drv_old.exe) in the installation menu of the new CD-ROM. Start this program and then follow the screen prompts (see Chapter 6.3).

2.After connecting the ISDN Adapter to a USB port, the hardware recognition facility of Windows 98 will recognize the presence of a new hardware component and start the Hardware Wizard.
