ROM drive; the Scanner Software installer should come
up automatically.

displayed, click 

Start

, select 

Run

 and type d:\cdsetup

(where d: is your CD-ROM drive).

Click on the “Install” option on each software program
in the order that it appears on your screen to install the
software.

choose Adaptec SCSI Interface Card as your interface

computer.
