D) USING W98_RXC_4_11_2579.exe

Overview

There are two phases to the installation of a driver that has been downloaded from the ATI WEB site.

The first phase occurs when you run the W98_RXC_4_11_2579.exe program.

This phase creates a temporary directory on the system disk and unpacks all the individual files that make up the ATI software bundle.

In the second phase the ATI SETUP program is launched from the temporary directory created in the first phase. ATI SETUP installs the software (from the temporary directory) into the operating system.

Steps

a) You must download W98_RXC_4_11_2579.exe and save it to a directory on your systems hard disk.
For example C:\temp is a common directory used to initially save a file into.

• Select W98_RXC_4_11_2579.exe and click OK to run the program.

! The individual files will be unpacked and placed into a directory on your hard disk. The default path for this directory is C:\ATI\support\W98_RXC_4_11_2579\

! After copying the files to the hard disk the INSTALLATION program will launch. You may choose to abort the INSTALL process at this point. (If you abort, no software will be installed into Windows.)

* Selecting "NO" will ensure that the components of this driver bundle will replace your existing driver components.
* Selecting "YES" will result in a MIX of new and old driver components, which is undesirable
