Reinstalling a device driver
Some applications or peripherals require specific drivers which you will not find in the Windows
®
Driver Cache
folder. To help you find or restore typical drivers needed by your pre-installed applications,
you can use the final product recovery CD-ROM.
To reinstall a device driver, proceed as follows:
1
First check whether the driver you want to reinstall is on the
final
product recovery CD-ROM. Only device
drivers that are not delivered with Windows
®
can be found in the
Drivers
folder.
2
Check all underlying sub-directories for the appropriate driver.
3
Next, launch the
Add Hardware Wizard
(click
Start/Control Panel/Performance and Maintenance/
System/Hardware/Add Hardware Wizard
to install the appropriate device).
If you installed a more recent driver you will get a warning message, in this case just ignore the warning
