INSTALLING THE USB DRIVERS

This section explains how to install the USB drivers for your Gateway. If you are using only an Ethernet connection,

USB driver installation is not necessary. The Microsoft Plug and Play (PnP) auto-detect feature recognizes when

new hardware has been installed. After you connect the Gateway to the PC, the Gateway will be detected

automatically.

IMPORTANT:

Make sure that the CD-ROM provided with your kit is inserted into the PC’s CD-ROM drive before

connecting the USB jack, as explained in section 5.3.3, “Connecting USB Devices to Your Gateway.”

Determine which operating system is installed on your PC, and then follow the USB driver instructions that match

your operating system. The following table provides a reference to the USB driver installation instructions. After

you have completed the USB driver installation, return to section 5.3.3, “Connecting USB Devices to Your

Gateway,” to complete the USB hardware installation instructions.
