2.4 Hardware Configuration (Plug and Play)

Your modem is configured using the Plug and Play

(PnP) capabilities of your computer. Plug and Play is a
set of specifications that define the ability for the com-
puter hardware and operating system to automatically
configure all compliant devices that are installed, reliev-
ing the user of the need to determine which addresses
and interrupts to use for each device. Consult your PC's
owner's manual to determine if it is PnP Revision 1.0a
compliant. You most likely have a Plug and Play Revision
1.0a compliant system if it was purchased after June
1994 or if the BIOS is dated after June 1994.

Proceed to one of the following sections, depending

on your system's configuration:

• Section 2.4.1 if you are running Windows

95 (with or without a Plug and Play PC)

• Section 2.4.2 if you are running Windows

3.1x or DOS on a PnP-compliant PC.

• Section 2.4.3 if you are running Windows

3.1x on a non-PnP PC.

2.4.1 Configuring in Windows 95

When Windows 95 starts for the first time after

card installation, it detects the modem and displays the
New Hardware Found dialog box.

Under New Hardware Found, when asked to

“Select which driver you want to install for your new
hardware,” click on “Driver from disk provided by hard-
ware manufacturer.” Click “OK.”
