See the

for general installation information for Windows 95 or Windows 98
and for information about other drivers or supplements that may be required. For
installation instructions for the various drivers, see the appropriate document or sec-
tion as follows:
Windows 95 or Windows 98 PIIX4 — See “Intel PIIX4 INF Update Installer for
Windows 95 or Windows 98” found later in this chapter.
Windows 95 or Windows 98 video drivers — See the documentation for your
video card.

or Windows 98” in Chapter 6.

NOTES: If you reinstall Windows 95 or Windows 98 from the Windows 95 or Win-
dows 98 CD, the bus-mastering functionality of the Windows 95 or Windows 98 EIDE
driver, which was operative in your original configuration, will be disabled. (The sys-
tem will operate without the bus-mastering functionality with only a small degradation
in performance. For information on the advantages of using bus-mastering drivers,
see “Enabling the Windows 95 or Windows 98 Bus-Mastering EIDE Driver” in Chap-
ter 2.)
If you are an administrator of corporate networks and you must download the Win-
dows 95 or Windows 98 operating system from a server to client systems, make sure
that you have the Windows 95 or Windows 98
backup media for the Precision 210
system on your server before downloading.
NOTE: The following procedure applies only to versions of the Microsoft Windows 95
or Windows 98 operating system installed by Dell.
If you must reinstall Windows 95 or Windows 98 on the computer system, you also
need to run the Intel PIIX4 INF Update Installer for Windows 95 or Windows 98
immediately after installing the operating system. Doing so enables Windows 95 or
Windows 98 to detect and configure PCI devices controlled by the integrated
82371EB component.
