Installation Prerequisites
Before you begin installation, note the following:
1. This document assumes that you have already installed the Windows 98/SE or
ME operating system (OS) and that you have an understanding of OS
operation. This product was developed and tested using Windows 98/SE and
ME. These instructions were developed using Windows 98/SE; Windows ME
prompts and screens may differ slightly.
Note: Windows 95 and earlier versions of Windows 98 are not supported.
2. You must have at least one RocketPort or RocketModem adapter installed
before installing this driver.
Note: The installation procedures differ depending on whether you are
installing a ISA, PCI, Universal PCI, or CompactPCI bus adapter. If
you need help determining which type of adapter you have, see the
Hardware Installation Guide.
3. If this is an initial installation (installing the adapter and driver for the first
time), go to
Installing the New Driver on Page 8 and perform the procedures
listed there in the order given.
4. Finally, if you are upgrading from an earlier version of the RocketPort or
RocketModem device driver, you must remove the old driver before installing
this new driver. See
Disabling or Removing the Driver on Page 7 for more
information. Do not use the Update option.
