CATV ASUS TV/FM Tuner Box ASUS AGP-V2740 Series User's Manual 9 II. Hardware Installation NOTE: The ASUS AGP-V2740 series graphics card can only be installed in motherboards with an AGP slot. Computer boards and components contain very delicate Integrated Circuit (IC) chips. To protect the computer board and other components against damage from static electricity, you must follow some precautions. Make sure that you unplug your power supply when adding or removing expansion cards or other system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to both your motherboard and expansion cards. Keep all components such as the host adapter in its antistatic bag until you are ready to install it. If you do not have one, touch both of your hands to a safely grounded object or to a metal object, such as the power supply case. To install Win95 OSR2. 0 with USB, you must have OSR2. 0 installed already. Otherwise, first install OSR2. 0 and then use the USB support update (you must use the same update language of your Windows language). On the April 1997 MSDN Disc1 "Windows 95, SDKs, and Tools", OSR2. 0 is found in "\OSR2" while the USB support update is found in "\OSR2\USBSUPP". To determine the installed version of the operating system, look in the registry at: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Version HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\VersionNumber OSR2. 0 with USB has: Version "Windows 95" and VersionNumber "4. 03. 1212" or "4. 03. 1214". Windows 98 Only Windows 98 Beta3 or later supports full Direct3D and AGP features. If you are not using Beta3 or later, you must upgrade your Windows before installing the AGP display driver. NOTE: Windows 98 includes VGARTD for the major chipsets but it is recommended that you install VGARTD from the AGP-V2740 Series CD to make sure that you have the latest version of VGARTD. NOTE: This Manual assumes that your CD-ROM disc drive is drive D: and that MS Windows is in "c:\windows". Replace either with the actual location, if necessary.
