4.2. Installation Procedure  

 

 

 

Please follow the following steps one by one in order to install successfully. 

The PRISM WLAN Configuration Utility is installed simultaneously with the driver by executing the 
PRISM for  Windows.exe file. Installation procedures differ depending on whether this is an initial 
installation or an upgrade. The following sections discuss these scenarios. 
Note also that some versions of Microsoft Windows operating systems require administrator privileges 
to install software. If this is the case for your operating system, be sure that you have such privileges 
before executing the PRISM for Windows.exe file. 
 

To upgrade an existing driver, it is not necessary to remove your PRISM card from your computer. 
Simply run the PRISM for Windows.exe file to replace the existing driver with the latest version. After 
the new driver is installed, you must restart the operating system (if the system was not restarted 
during the installation procedure). 
 

1. Insert the given 

Installation CD 

in the 

CD-ROM.

 

 

2. Select CD-ROM drives to locate driver files.  

 

3. Find 

the software 

in the 

CD-ROM 

and run the

 program “ PRISM for Windows.exe file  ” 

in order 

to set up configuration utility & driver.

 

 

 

 

 

Follow the instruction and click 

Continue

.  

 

Note: Do not insert the 

WLAN

 USB adapter until you are asked to do so, failure of which may result in unsuccessful 

installation of your

 11Mbps Wireless Mini-USB Module
