PSC Windows 98SE Installation Notes Installing a Philips Sound card (PSC 604 or 605) in a system that has Windows 98SE may require that a 98SE installation CD be inserted into a CD drive during the sound card installation. This is a normal process required by the OS for the purpose of loading additional sound processing files. It is recommended that a Windows 98SE installation CD be made available before installing a PSC. However if a 98SE install CD is not available an alternate installation method is available. This method will allow the PSC to install properly but will not load the Game Port driver. You can return later when a Windows 98SE installation CD is available to install the Game Port driver. Important Note: Several latent issues that cause the 98SE installation process to be problematic have been resolved with V4.00 and higher. We recommend the latest driver from the Philips website http://www.pcsound.philips.com/support.html be downloaded. After obtaining the latest driver click on the appropriate link below for guidance with a particular issue when installing a PSC604 or 605 on a Windows 98SE based system. • Installing “with” an available Windows 98SE installation CD. • Installing “without” a Windows 98SE installation CD. • Canceling the PSC installation. • Installing the Game Port driver. • One Minute timeout message.
