**************************************************************************** * 3. INF FILES UPDATED BY THE SOFTWARE * **************************************************************************** The Windows will update is used and table lists INF File 95 INF Update Utility for Intel Chipsets program the INF files depending on which release of Windows 95 which Intel chipset is present in the system. The following the INF files affected by the INF Update Installer: Windows 95 4.00.950 Retail Windows 95 4.00.950b OSR2 w/o USB Windows 95 4.00.950b OSR2.1 w/ USB Windows 95 4.00.950c OSR2.5 w/ or w/o USB

----------- ----------- ----------MSHDC.INF x x MACHINE.INF USB.INF x N/A x N/A

----------x x x

-------------------x x x

Note: USB.INF is only updated if Windows 95 4.00.950b or 4.00.950c with USB Supplement is installed. Please check with your system provider to determine which OS release and which Intel chipset are used in your system. **************************************************************************** * 4. RUNNING THE SOFTWARE * **************************************************************************** This procedure is specific only to the version of the software included in this package. This subsection describes how to run the software on a system where Windows 95 is installed. 1. Check the System Requirements. Windows 95 must be fully installed and running on the system prior to running this software. 2. Close any running applications. You may experience some difficulties if you don't do this. 3. Run SETUP.EXE. 4. Click Next on Welcome Screen to read and agree to the license agreement. 5. Click Yes if you agree to continue. Note: If you click No, program will terminate. 6. Click Next on Installer screen. 7. Click OK to restart. 8. Follow the screen instructions and use default settings to complete the setup when Windows 95 is re-started. **************************************************************************** * 5. VERIFYING INF UPDATE BY THE SOFTWARE * **************************************************************************** Run Device Manager to verify that INF files have been updated properly: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Click on Start Select Settings Select Control Panel Double click on System icon Click on Device Manager tab Click on View devices by type button Click on System Devices

8. Check the descriptions for one of the following entries: Intel 82371AB/EB PCI to ISA bridge Intel 82371SB PCI to ISA bridge If you see PCI standard ISA bridge you will need restart your system and re-run the software. **************************************************************************** * 6. TROUBLESHOOTING * **************************************************************************** It is assumed that the system requirements from subsection #1 above have been satisfied. COMMON PROBLEMS or Questions: ***************************** #1 > 1a. How do I know the INF files in my system require update? 1b. My system works just fine without running this utility program. Do I still need to update my INF files? 1c. What will happen if I do not update my INF files? ANS> This software utility checks whether your system contains an Intel chipset and Windows 95 operating system before performing any updates. If your system needs the update, it will be performed. If your system doesn't need the update, the program will inform you and terminate. #2 > System locked up during Device Manager Remove or during restart. ANS> System lockup can occur during Device Manager Remove operation or Control Panel Restart as a result of possible system issues during these operations. In the event of system lockup, restart the machine and view Device Manager. If devices are listed properly and system experiences no further problems, then .INF file restore process was successful. If devices are not configured correctly try re-running the Windows 95 INF Update Utility for Intel Chipsets program. If this does not fix problem or further problems are experienced, re-install Windows 95. #3 > I want to restore my original INF files. ANS> The Installer will update the INF files as necessary. Intel recommends that the updated INF files be used with Intel chipsets to function properly in the system. However, the following procedures can be used if one desires to restore the original INF files. The original INF files are backed up as MSHDC.xxx, MACHINE.xxx, or USB.xxx where xxx is a 3 digit number (for example, 000, 001, etc.). This utility program attempts to save the original INF files as *.000, but if that file name is already in use the utility program will keep incrementing the file extension until it finds one that is not in use. For example, to restore the original "MSHDC.INF" file:

1. Make copy of new existing "MSHDC.INF" files. C:> copy MSHDC.INF MSHDC.NEW 2. Restore the original "MSHDC.INF" file. C:> cd \<Windows 95 Path>\INF\ C:\<Windows 95 Path>\INF> copy MSHDC.000 MSHDC.INF 3. Repeat step 1 - 2 for MACHINE.INF file or USB.INF file as needed. 4. Run the Control Panel->System applet. 5. Click on Device Manager 6. Click on View devices by connection. 7. Click on Plug and Play BIOS. 8. Click on PCI bus. 9. Select Remove. 10. Select Yes to restart the system. 11. Windows 95 will display messages when various hardware components in the system are recognized. When prompted to install a driver, select the Windows Default driver or appropriate device drivers from disk provided by the hardware manufacturer if needed. 12. Select Yes to restart the system. (Steps 10-11 may occur several times.) 13. Re-install the custom drivers from disk provided by the hardware manufacturer if needed. #4 > I am using Windows 95 operating system Version 950A (OSR1) and my IDE controller is preceeded with a yellow "!" in Device Manager after I run this software utility. ANS> If you are using Windows 95 operating system Version 950A (OSR1), with the Windows default IDE driver, this can happen. For this reason, OSR1 is not supported with the Windows 95 INF Update Utility for Intel Chipsets program. **************************************************************************** * 7.
