There is generally no need to remove the device driver files ( .vxd file ) or the device
information files ( .inf files ) unless you need to upgrade from a V1.xx driver to a V2.00, or
later, version of the device driver.
If there are no longer any installed RocketPort 550/RocketPort 550 Universal controllers
installed then Windows 98 will not load the driver. However, the driver files will remain
installed on the system’s hard disk.
At a later time the RocketPort 550 card(s) can be re-installed and the computer restarted.
During boot, Windows 98 will detect the RocketPort 550/RocketPort 550 Universal and
load the drivers.
