After starting your computer you will see a “Found New Hardware Wizard” for PCI Communications Device, click
“Cancel”, or the Esc button to close the wizard as the installer detects and installs the modem automatically.
Windows XP users must first set up their location details. Click Start>Control Panel>Printers and other
hardware>Phone and Modem options, then check your country is correct, and enter your area code. This may
vary depending on how Windows XP is configured.
Once this is done, make sure all other programs are closed and place the NetTools 2.1 CD into your CD drive and
let it autorun. If the CD does not autorun, browse to your CD drive and double click on the nettool.htm file. When
the window opens in your browser, click on the modem drivers link to open the driver page and then click on the
SwannSmart IIx icon to open the driver selection page. Now click on the SwannSmart IIx Internal driver
installation icon that suits your particular operating system.
A new window will open prompting you with the options for handling the file. Select “Run from current location” or
“Open” and click ok.
You may get a warning that the Authenticode or Digital Signature is not found, you must click “Yes” or “OK” to
continue with the installation. Please note that all files have been scanned with the latest version of Computer
Associates VET antivirus program.
Once you have clicked yes, another window will inform you that you are about to install the SwannSmart IIx PCI
modem, click ”install”to continue.
You will now see the Licence agreement window open. Read this carefully, and then click “I agree” to continue with
the installation. (Windows ME users will not see the Licence agreement at this stage due to a different driver
installation method).
The necessary drivers will now be copied to your systems hard disk, into the C:\modem folder that the installer
creates automatically. Once this is done the Installer will run, your modem will be detected and identified
automatically. You will be asked if you wish to install the modem, click “OK” to continue. Windows XP users may
see a warning regarding “Has not passed Windows Logo Testing, click”Continue anyway” to complete the
installation.
You will also see a shortcut on your Start Menu to uninstall the drivers should the need arise.
If you have decided to install the drivers manually, when asked by you can direct the installation to the NetTools
CD in your CDROM drive at this location. (D represents your CDROM drive letter) D:\Drivers\internal\Win98, or
D:\Drivers\internal\WinMe, or D:\Drivers\internal\Win2KXP, or D:\Drivers\internal\NT40, depending on which
version of Microsoft Windows you have on your system.
