5. SOFTWARE SETUP

5.1 Install Operating System

You should always use the latest operating system and updates when using new
hardware to ensure full compliancy. You may use any version of Windows 98/2000/
Millenium, but for Windows 95, you must use OSR 2.0 or later. For Windows NT
4.0, you must use Service Pack 3.0 or later.

5.2 Start Windows

When you start Windows for the first time after installing your motherboard, Win-
dows will detect all plug-and play devices. Follow the Add New Hardware Wizard
to install all necessary device drivers. When prompted to restart, select No and then
follow the setup procedures in this section.

NOTE: Because there are various motherboard settings, options, and expansion
cards, the following can only be used as a general reference and may not reflect
exactly the screen contents displayed on your screen.
