5.4 Windows 1995
Windows 95 maintains a registry of all known hardware installed in your computer.
Inside this hardware registry Windows 95 keeps track of all of your system resources, such as I/O
locations, IRQ levels, and DMA channels. The "Add New Hardware Wizard" utility in Windows
95 was designed to add new hardware and update this registry.
An "INF" configuration file is included with the DSC-200/300 to allow easy
configuration in the Windows 95 environment. Also a custom Windows 95 serial device driver is
included with the DSC-200/300 to support the use of the 16550 UART's 64 byte FIFO. Windows
95 uses the "INF" file to determine the system resources required by the DSC-200/300, searches
for available resources to fill the boards requirements, and then updates the hardware registry
with an entry that allocates these resources
The following instructions provide step-by-step instructions on installing the
DSC-200/300 in Windows 95 using the "New Hardware Found" wizard.
1. After booting the computer with a newly-installed DSC-200/300, the "New Hardware
Found" dialog box will appear. If you have never installed a Quatech PCI
communications adapter before, the dialog box may simply indicate that it has found a
"PCI Card."
