Question
When I plug my SGC2909 in and Windows runs through the detection process it asks me for my Windows CD. I
do not have a Windows CD as it was not supplied with my computer so what do I do?
Answer 1
Check and verify that you have the Windows CD.
If you have the Windows CD, you should insert it into your CD-ROM drive. The actual les that Windows is
looking for when you are trying to install the SGC2909 are called Cab les and these are usually found in a direc-
tory on your Windows CD (Win98 if you have Windows 98SE or Win9x if you have Windows ME). You will need
to select the appropriate CD-ROM directory when asked by Windows. The necessary les will then by copied
to your PC.
Answer 2
Win98SE and ME may require the Windows CD to complete the installation.
Some PC manufacturers do not provide a Windows CD with their computer when they ship it to the customer.
The actual les that Windows is looking for when you are trying to install the SGC2909 are called Cab les and
these are usually found in a directory on your Windows CD (Win98 if you have Windows 98 or Win9x if you
have Windows ME). However, if the manufacturer did not give you a CD then they may have made a backup of
these les somewhere on your hard drive.
The standard location to place these les is the C:\Windows\Options\Cabs directory or, sometimes, simply the
C:\Cabs directory. You can also try the C:\Windows\System32\Drivers directory for the location of the les. The
last possible location to place these les is C:\Win98 or C:\Win9x.
When the Windows installer for the SGC2909 asks you for your Windows CD simply click OK - it will come
back to you saying that it can not nd a particular le and at the bottom of the window that comes up it will tell
you where it is trying to Copy The Files From in a small window.
Click in this window and delete whatever is in there and try replacing it with one of the above locations. If nei-
ther works then you should get in touch with the company who supplied your PC and ask them where your Cab
les are kept on your PC.
