NOTE: Ensure you have ALL Windows Critical Updates from the Microsoft Windows Update Site.
The Windows Update feature can be a convenient way to make sure you have all the latest
patches and bug fixes that Microsoft didn't bother including in the boxed version of Windows.
However, if you have more than one computer, or you have a slow connection, it can be tedious
and quite inconvenient to be forced to download all the files over and over again.
Please go to http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com, click on "Product Updates" to to download
the latest Critical Updates for your Windows OS.
Although there's no mention of it on the Windows Update site, Microsoft has made all of the
updates available for separate download (for installing later) here:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows98/downloads/corporate.asp
In the dialog box that comes up choose Search for the best drivers for your
device; Click on Next to continue.
In the dialog box that comes up, choose the directory that has the current
driver, as your source. Ex: C:\TEMP A:\ C:\Windows\Desktop
The dialog that comes up informs you that it has found the driver; Click on
Next to continue. The driver file is now copied to your hard disk.
After the driver file has been copied to the hard disk, a dialog box appears to
tell you that the installation has finished. Click on Finish. Windows now finishes
up the installation.
Windows 2000/XP Users - Please Note
Windows 2000 and Windows XP have native driver support for the GUC1284B.
