where (n) is a Windows XP assigned number. Depending on the system configuration

you may have several of these oem(n) files. You will need to locate which one is for the
RocketPort 550 / BroadPort 550 drivers.

Note that Windows explorer may not display the .inf extension.

The .inf files are ASCII file and so you can open them under notepad (note

the .PNF is NOT an ASCII file).

To find the oem file assigned to the RocketPort 550 / BroadPort 550 you
can open each oem(n).file as required and look for the ‘Rckt550.inf’ string in

the comment field.

Once you know which oem(n).inf file is the copy, then delete it and the
corresponding .PNF file.

Note: You could use the Windows explorer ‘search’ feature to find the file.

i)

Left click toolbar ‘search’ icon

ii)

Enter ‘oem*.inf’ (without the quotes) into the search for... edit box

iii)

Enter ‘Rckt550.in’ (without the quotes) into the Containing text edit
box

iv)

Enter ‘\WINDOWS\inf’ (without the quotes) into the Look in

edit box

v)

Left click the Search Now button

The name will appear in the search results. Note that the extension may not

be displayed but the type field should display ‘setup information’.

If we assume that the filename is oem0 then the files to delete would be

oem0.inf

oem0.PNF

Note that explorer may not display the .inf extension.

later installations. However, if you wish to remove them then:-
