1. INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

   Before you update Sound Blaster drivers, please ensure that your
   Sound Blaster card is functioning properly on your system. This
   Sound Blaster Updates Disk will only update the latest drivers for
   you.

   To install Sound Blaster Updates, you require INSTALL.EXE,
   INSTALL.PVL and any additional files that are card dependent.
   (Refer to the table below). If you downloaded AWEDW3UP.EXE, you
   will also need to download S16DW3UP.EXE before installing.

   We recommend that you update both the DOS and Windows drivers.

2. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION

   To update your Sound Blaster software, follow the steps below:

   a. Copy any of the files that you want to update (as shown in
      section 1) onto a floppy disk or a directory in your hard disk.

      extract that file if it is not meant for the correct Audio card.

   d. Follow the program's instructions to complete the installation.

   * Do NOT run INSTALL.EXE under Windows.

3. INSTALL's OPERATION

   INSTALL will perform the following tasks:

   a. Back-up all out-dated files from your Sound Blaster directory to
      the BACKUP directory.

   If you choose to update the drivers in your Windows directory, the
   program will perform the following tasks:

   a. Remove all out-dated drivers from your Windows directory.

   b. Install updated drivers to your Windows directory.

   c. Verify that the file SYSTEM.INI contains the correct name of the
      Sound Blaster driver(s).

   At the end of the installation, a log file SBUPDATE.LOG will be
   created in your Sound Blaster directory.  You may use a text editor
   to view this file.  Alternatively, you may follow the steps below:

   a. Change to your Sound Blaster directory.

   b. Type "TYPE SBUPDATE.LOG" and press <Enter> to view the contents
      of the file.
