other USB device to your Notebook, complete the following
steps:

1. Turn off your Notebook.

2. Connect the device to your Notebook according to the

instructions that came with it.

3. Turn on your Notebook and follow the instruction that

came with your device for installing any needed drivers.

You may be prompted to insert the Windows Installation CD
or diskettes. If this occurs, complete the following steps:

1. At the Add New Hardware Wizard, click Next to begin

installing the drivers and files necessary to make the new
hardware work.
