NOTE: Installation processes will require the use of your original, licensed copy of Windows.

Please have your Windows CD available BEFORE proceeding with the installation.

Step 1: After you have inserted the SMC2209USB/ETH in your machine, the Operating System

will automatically recognize the adapter and prompt you for the appropriate drivers. Click the

[Next >] button to begin the installation.

Step 2: Insert the EZ Installation Wizard and Documentation CD and select the [Search for the
best driver for your device] option and click [Next >].

Step 3: Clear all checkboxes except for [Specify a location:]. Then press the [Browse] button

and look for the drivers on your CD-ROM. Browse to the root directory - ?:\. (Note: The "?"

equals the letter of your CD-ROM drive. In most cases, this is D.)

Step 4: The system should find the drivers. Click the [Next >] button to continue the installation.

The wizard will show "SMC EZ Networking Compact 10/100 USB 2.0 Adapter”.

(Note: If the system could not find the drivers, click the [< Back] button, and select the [Display

a list of all the drivers...] option. Select [Network Adapters] from the list of devices, press [Have

Disk] and once again browse to the location of the drivers)

Step 5: Once the system has copied the SMC drivers from the CD, it may then request files from
your original Windows disk. Please insert the Windows CD at this time.

Step 6: The system will copy the files. Do NOT press [Cancel].

Step 7: Once all the necessary files are copied from the Windows CD, the driver install process
will be complete. Click [Finish] to exit the wizard.
