OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 Host Controller. Click Next.
B) At the next window, check the circle for “Search for the best driver for your device (Recommended)” and click
Next.
C) The next dialog box will search for new drivers from its internal driver database on the hard drive. Cancel all of
the other options in the list and click Next.
D) This dialog box shows that the Wizard is ready to install the best driver for the device. Click Next. The files
should load automatically from the Windows driver database in several seconds.
Important Note:
If the Add New Hardware Wizard prompts you that a specific, required driver file could not be
found, it will then prompt you to insert the Windows 98SE CD-ROM into your computer to load the new driver.
Follow the prompts until the correct driver has been located.
E) At the final window, click the Finish button to complete the driver installation. You will then need to restart your
computer to load the driver properly.
