Installing Windows Drivers
This section assumes you have installed one of the supported Microsoft Operating Systems on the
system hard disk drive.
To install Windows drivers, insert the Power Installer II CD-ROM disc in the system’s CD-ROM
(or other optical drive) and wait for the Power Installer interface to automatically load. If it
doesn’t start, run the Power Installer interface directly from the disc by running Setup.
The Power Installer main screen will appear. Click on this motherboard’s model number to open
the section for this board. The “Driver and Utilities” screen will appear. Click on “Driver
Installation” and the Driver Installation screen will appear.
Installing the Utility Software
To install the utility software bundled on the Power Installer CD-ROM disc, click on “Software
Utility” in the Drivers and Utilities screen to open the Software Utility window. To install the
Adobe Acrobat reader or McAfee Anti-Virus software packages, click on the item you want to
install and follow the install program’s instructions.
Making Driver Discs
You can make driver floppy disks by running the “Make Driver” utility from the Drivers and
Utilities screen. Follow the screen interface, which is self-evident to make driver installation
disks if needed.
Making & Installing Linux Drivers
You can boot the system from the Power Installer disc. The system will boot from the Linux
kernel on the disc and you can use the driver disk creator that loads to create Linux driver disks.
You can then install these drivers according to the instructions for driver installation from your
Linux distribution.
