1.
Power up your PC, and put your Windows 98 SE, ME or 2000 CD in your
CD-ROM drive. Some computers sold with Windows preinstalled may not
have included the Windows 98/SE/ME CD. If this is the case, the necessary
files are probably already on your hard drive and no CD is required for
installation.
2. Connect the USB3 to the USB port on your PC. If your PC has multiple USB
ports, it should not matter which port you use. Check to see if the USB light
on the USB3 is on. If it is, Windows should automatically detect new
hardware.
NOTE
: If windows does not detect the new device, and the USB light is lit, you
may have to force windows to find the hardware. Go to START | SETTINGS |
CONTROL PANEL select ADD NEW HARDWARE, select NEXT, and Windows
should find the USB3.
3. The Add New Hardware Wizard will appear, stating that it has found a USB
COMPOSITE DEVICE, click Next > to proceed.
