Installing the driver
7.1
Uninstalling old drivers and devices
The most common cause of faults during installation is the presence of a driver for a
similar, old device. The best solution is to first remove all drivers related to old
devices before installing the new driver. Make sure you only delete programs for old,
unused (similar) devices.
1.
Enter the Windows ‘Safe Mode’ (press F8 when starting Windows and then
select ‘Safe Mode’ from the menu which will be displayed).
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.
7.2
Installing the driver in Windows 98SE / Windows ME /
Windows 2000 / Windows XP
Note:
The latest driver can be downloaded from www.trust.com/13156. Check
whether a new driver is available and use this for the installation. The
current version of the driver is included on the Trust Installation CD-ROM.
Note:
Make sure all other programs are closed during the installation.
Note:
During installation in Windows XP, you may receive a message saying
that the driver has not been signed. This does not cause a problem for
the functionality.
Note:
In the example, ‘D:\’ is used to indicate the CD-ROM drive. This may be
different for your computer.
1.
Insert the CD-ROM into your computer’s CD-ROM drive. The installation
program will start automatically. If it does not start automatically, carry out
the following:
a)
Select ‘Run’ from the Start menu.
b)
Type [D:\SETUP.EXE] and click on 'OK' to start the Trust Software
Installer.

3.
Select the language you wish to use for the installation.
