1. DRIVER INSTALLATION

Insert the sound card into your system and power on the computer.
Windows 95 will detect the sound card and prompt you for the
driver. Insert the driver diskette into the floppy drive. Windows
95 will step through the installation procedure.

Notes:
- The 82C931 is a Plug-and-Play audio device. It consists of a
number of logical devices that could be detected and reported by
Windows 95. These devices are:
. Gameport Joystick : Joystick interface
. OPTi Plug-N-Play MPU-401 : MPU-401 interface
. OPTi Plug-N-Play Sound System : Audio device
. (optional) Standard IDE/ESDI Hard Disk Controller

- If there is no audio device installed in the system before,
Windows 95 would prompt user to insert the Windows 95 CD to
add related audio utilities (like volume control, sound recorder,
etc.) into your system.

2. RESOURCE RECONFIGURATION

The 82C931 sound device is a fully Plug-N-Play device. Windows 95 can
detect its available resources and allocate them on-the-fly in the
installation sequence. In some rare cases, however, resource conflict
could occur and it is flagged by the yellow exclamation mark shown at the
Device Manager of the Windows 95.
To resolve the conflict, click on the SYSTEM icon in the Control Panel
folder and choose Device Manager. From Device Manager, double click
the "Sound, video and game controller" category and the list of
installed devices will be displayed. Double click on the device with
yellow exclamation mark. Choose Resource. Determine the conflict cause
thru the hints shown in the "Conflicting device lists". Change the
resource (e.g. I/O address, DMA, IRQ) accordingly. The resource
setting will be reconfigured.
