Chapter 3 Drivers Installation
3-1 Installing Chipset Drivers
Before installing the drivers, first install the operating system. (The following instructions use
Windows XP as the example operating system.)
After installing the operating system, insert the motherboard driver disk into your optical drive.
The driver Autorun screen is automatically displayed which looks like that shown in the screen
shot below. (If the driver Autorun screen does not appear automatically, go to My Computer,
double-click the optical drive and execute the Run.exe program.)
After inserting the driver disk, "Xpress Install" will automatically scan your system and then list all the
drivers that are recommended to install. Y ou can click the Install All button and "Xpress Install" will
install all the recommended drivers. Or click Install Single Items to manually select the drivers you
wish to install.
Please ignore the popup dialog box(es) (e.g. the Found New Hardware Wizard) displayed
when "Xpress Install" is installing the drivers. Failure to do so may affect the driver installation.
Some device drivers will restart your system automatically during the driver installation.
After the system restart, "Xpress Install" will continue to install other drivers.
After the drivers are installed, follow the onscreen instructions to restart your system. You
can install other applications included in the motherboard driver disk.
For USB 2.0 driver support under the Windows XP operating system, please install the
Windows XP Service Pack 1 or later. After installing the SP1 (or later), if a question mark still
exists in Universal Serial Bus Controller in Device Manager, please remove the
question mark (by right-clicking your mouse and select Uninstall) and restart the system.
(The system will then autodetect and install the USB 2.0 driver.)
