Upgrading the RoamAbout Miniport Driver
The RoamAbout Miniport driver is used on Windows 95, 98, and NT systems. Upgrading
the installed RoamAbout driver may be required if:
• You want to use new features that have become available for your RoamAbout PC
Card.
• You installed a newer version of the RoamAbout Client Utility.

The procedure to upgrade drivers differs between the various Windows operating systems:

Driver function that allows you to easily upgrade the current driver.
• Early versions of the Windows 95 system require you to completely remove the driver
from your computer before installing the latest driver.
