Installing Drivers
USB 2.0 driver software with hub support must be installed on
your computer for the XHub for Notebooks to operate at USB 2.0
speeds. If you are using an Adaptec USB 2.0 controller, install the
USB 2.0 drivers provided on the XHub for Notebooks CD.
Note: The drivers provided on the XHub for Notebooks CD
will not work with non-Adaptec USB 2.0 controllers. Refer to
your controller’s manufacturer for driver information.
Follow the instructions for your Operating System (OS) to install
the USB 2.0 drivers:
■ For Windows 2000, Windows Me, or Windows 98SE, see below.
■ For Windows XP, see page 6 .
■ For Macintosh, see page 7 .
Note: Adaptec strongly recommends that you always use the
most recent drivers to maximize your XHub’s performance.
Regularly check the Adaptec website at
www.adaptec.com for
the most up-to-date USB 2.0 drivers.

in Your XHub on page 4 for instructions). Insert the XHub for
Notebooks CD into your CD-ROM drive. Windows loads the
