2.3 Installing Device Driver
The driver is installed by INF file. Install the board in the PC, and boot the PC. Then, the
PC will automatically detect the board (by PNP) and will be ready to install the driver. The
user can easily install the driver file saved in the installation diskette or HDD by designating
the folder classified according to the OS type. After the driver file is installed, the IRQ
of the installed card must not conflict or be shared with another card or equipment.
However, if the IRQ of the installed card is shared by another card or equipment,
insert the card into a different PCI slot or manually specify the IRQ through CMOS
setup of the main board.
Operating systems supporting the driver include Windows98SE, Windows 2000, and
windows XP.
CNBTECH guarantees the compatibility only with ATI-series video cards, not other
video cards.
Install the driver as described below:
2.3.1 Windows XP/2000
Installing the driver in Windows XP/2000 is more complicated than in Windows98 and differs
a little bit depending on the model.
Turn off the PC, and insert the board in the PCI slot.
Turn on the PC, and run the system.
Windows 2000 will automatically detect the new hardware device and recognize it as a
multimedia video controller.
