ADA70 Speaker System Installation
Using Windows 98 Device Driver
In order to take full advantage of your new Altec Lansing
Multimedia Speaker System, it is important that everything is
in the right place in your computer. Windows 98 can do
this automatically for you. The "Add Hardware Wizard" will
search for new drivers for your Altec Lansing ADA Speaker
System. All you need to do is to follow the screen prompts
once the hourglass disappears.
The "Add Hardware Wizard" will search for, locate and
install the USB Audio Composite Device, the Human Interface
Device, the USB Audio Device and the CD ROM Control
Device. There are times during each installation when you
may be asked to provide necessary information, otherwise
default settings are recommended.
