The Drivers and Utilities program displays drivers only for hardware

displayed, exit the Drivers and Utilities program. For drivers information, see
the documentation that came with the device.

A message stating that the

Drivers and Utilities program is detecting

the My Drivers—The ResourceDVD has identified these components in
your system window.

the screen.

information about components installed on your computer, see "Front View" on page 19.
