Installing Your Cable Modem

Step 2: Installing the Drivers
A driver is a program that controls a device in your computer; it
allows your new hardware to communicate with your operating
system. Printers, disk drives, and keyboards are common examples
of devices that must have a driver program. Many drivers, such as
the keyboard driver, come with the operating system. For other
devices, such as your new PCI cable modem, you may need to load
a new driver when you connect the device to your computer.
Put the PCI cable modem aside—you don’t even need to take it
out of its antistatic bag yet. Follow the steps below.

Your computer should be turned on. Close any applications
you have running.
Insert the CD-ROM disc that came with your cable modem
into your CD-ROM drive. The CD-ROM disc should auto-
run after a few seconds and display an installation screen.
If the CD does not auto-run:
•

on your desktop; then double-
click on the icon for your CD-ROM drive.
