When finished, close the device manager.

2. Removal of driver setup information files

These files must be removed to allow a subsequent ‘from the beginning’ installation.

2.1 Start Windows Explorer. Open the Windows\inf folder. Locate and remove the
following four files:-


Rckt550.inf
Rckt550b.inf
Rckt550.PNF
Rckt550b.PNF


Note: WINDOWS\inf is by default a hidden folder. You can display it and it’s contents by clicking on

the Exploerer menubar ‘View’ menu item , then select ‘Folder Options’ from the drop down menu. From
the displayed ‘Folder Options’ dialog select ‘View’ in order to display the ‘Advanced Settings’. From
‘Advanced settings – Files and Folders’ select ‘Show all files’. Click OK to finish. After completing the
removal it’s a good idea to reset the option to it’s original setting.

2.2 Windows 98 creates a copy of Rckt550.inf , renames it as
‘Comtrol EuropeRCKT550.INF’ and saves it in the folder Windows\inf\other
them. This file must also be removed.



3. Removal of driver and supporting files

You do not necessarily need to remove these files. If left alone then they just take up a
small amount of disk space. The files will simply be overwritten by later installations.
However, if you wish to remove them then:-

3.1 Using Windows Explorer open the folder Windows\system

3.2 remove the following files


Rcktser.vxd
Rcktmf.vxd


The driver files (.vxd) and setup information files (.inf and .PNF) are now rem oved. After
restart, assuming that RocketPort 550 and/or RocketPort 550 Universal cards are
physically installed then Windows 98 will detect these cards as new hardware and initiate
the ‘Add New Hardware’ wizard.
