Concise User's Guide
System Software
Your computer may already come with system software
pre-installed. Where this is not the case, or where you are
re-configuring your computer for a different system, you
will find this manual refers to the Microsoft Windows
Vista operating system . Further information on installing
the drivers and utilities is available in Chapters 4 & 7 of
the expanded User's Manual on the Device Drivers &
Utilities + User's Manual disc.
Drivers
If you are installing/re-installing new system software, you
will need to install the appropriate drivers. Drivers are pro-
grams which act as an interface between the computer and
a hardware component e.g. a wireless network module. It is
very important that you install the drivers in the order listed
in
Table 6, on page
23. You will be unable to use most ad-
vanced controls until the necessary drivers and utilities are
properly installed.
