2

3 Installation

3.1 

Uninstalling old drivers and devices

The most common cause of faults during installation is the presence of a driver for a
similar, old product. The best solution is to first remove all drivers related to old
devices before installing the new driver.
Follow the instructions given below if you still have an old driver installed on your
computer:
1. 

Enter the Windows ‘Safe Mode’. (Press F8 when starting Windows before
the Windows start screen is displayed. Select ‘Safe Mode’.)

2. 

Click on ‘Start – Settings – Control Panel’ and double-click on the
‘Add/Remove Programs’ icon.

3. 

Find all the programs for similar, old devices and remove these by clicking
on the ‘Add/Remove’ button. When in the ‘Safe Mode’, it is possible for
some programs to appear twice. In that case, remove all the programs
which appear twice.

4. 

Restart the computer.

3.2 

Installing the CN105W Wireless Network PC-Card

Follow the instructions below to install the CN105W Wireless Network PC-Card:

Note:

The Wireless PC-Card is ‘hot-swappable’. This means that you

Have your Windows CD-ROM available whilst installing the
hardware.

Note:

Make sure all other programs (except Windows) are closed
during the installation.

1. Start

3. Windows 

will detect new hardware and ask for the location of the driver.

4. 

Insert the CD-ROM containing the driver and applications into your CD-ROM
drive.

Note:

The Trust Software Installer may start automatically when the
CD-ROM is inserted into your CD-ROM drive. You do not need
to use this and may close it.

5. 

Set Windows to search in a specific location. Give one of the paths below
as the location:
- [

D:\Win98

] for installation in Windows 98

D:\WinMe

] for installation in Windows ME

- [

D:\Win2000

] for installation in Windows 2000

- [

D:\WinXP

ROM drive. Check which letter is used to indicate your CD-ROM
drive.
