Uninstalling old drivers and devices
The most common cause of faults during installation is the presence of a driver for a
similar, old device. The best solution is to first remove all drivers related to old
devices before installing the new driver. Make sure you only delete programs for old,
unused (similar) devices.
1. Enter the Windows ‘Safe Mode’ (press F8 when starting Windows and then select
‘Safe Mode’ from the menu which will be displayed).
2. Click on ‘Start – Settings – Control Panel’ and double-click on the ‘Add/Remove
Programs’ icon.
3. Find all the programs for similar, old devices and remove these by clicking on the
‘Add/Remove’ button. When in the ‘Safe Mode’, it is possible for some programs
to appear twice. In that case, remove all the programs which appear twice.
4. Restart the computer.
Note
:
Do not remove your modem’s drivers.
Note
:
Do not delete any existing dial-up connections via an analogue or
ISDN modem. This will allow you to access the Internet during
installation if you encounter any problems.
7 Installation
As previously explained in chapter 5 (
Getting Acquainted with ADSL
), the installation
of the 235A and 245B Speedlink modem can be carried out in two different ways.
The automatic installation and configuration is described in chapter 7.1. During the
automatic installation and configuration, you select your ISP from a list of ISP’s. This
has pre-programmed settings which are necessary for connecting to the Internet. If
the correct Internet Service Provider is not included in the list, see chapter 7.2 for
instructions on how to manually install and configure the modem.
Note:
The latest drivers can be downloaded from
www.trust.com/13141-
02/download
and
www.trust.com/13365-02/download
. Check whether a
new driver is available and use this for the installation. The current
version of the driver is included on the Trust Installation CD-ROM.
Note:
Make sure all other programs are closed during the installation.
Note:
During installation in Windows XP, you may receive a message saying
that the driver has not been signed. This does not cause a problem for
the functionality.
Note:
In the example, ‘D:\’ is used to indicate the CD-ROM drive. This may be
different for your computer.
