PCI Serial for Windows 95

How do I remove information about serial boards from the Device
Manager?
Because the serial boards are single physical devices that support multiple
ports, they are registered as “multi-function adapters” in the Device
Manager. Each port is a child device listed under Ports (COM & LPT).
Windows 95 does not allow multi-function child devices to be removed
directly within the Device Manager. You must open the Multi-function
adapters class as shown in Figure D-1, select your interface, and click on
the Remove button.
How can I determine which version of the NI-Serial software I have
installed?
The Read Me file gives the version of the software. To read the file, select
Read Me under Start»Programs»NI Serial Software for Windows 95.
