this method is more complicated than option a. it is particularly inconvenient if you are installing multiple cards at once, since each card has to be set up separately.
this process installs only the driver and is useful only for updating the driver component. furthermore, to get the sample applications and other required items, you must still run the setup.exe program detailed in scenario 2, option a.
the following windows and instructions assume that you are working with a computer on which the osprey-500 software has never previously been installed.
when windows 2000 starts, it detects the new card(s) and starts the found new hardware wizard.
1 please carefully note the terminology in the found new hardware wizard.
2 for all bt/ct878-based osprey cards, the wizard detects two logical devices for each card - a multimedia video controller device and a multimedia controller device.
