5 Installation 

5.1 

Uninstalling old drivers and devices 

The most common cause of faults during installation is the presence of a driver for a 
similar, old device. The best solution is to first remove all drivers related to old 
devices before installing the new driver. Make sure you only delete programs for old, 
unused (similar) devices. 
1.  Click on ‘Start – Settings – Control Panel’ and double-click on the ‘Add/Remove 

Programs’ icon. 

2.  Find all the programs for similar, old devices and remove these by clicking on the 

‘Add/Remove’ button.

 

3.  Restart the computer. 

5.2 

Installation in Windows 98 / Windows ME / Windows 

2000 / Windows XP 

Follow the instructions from the Quick Installation Guide to install the TRUST 
Speedshare Turbo Pro Wireless PCI adapter. 

Note: 

Have your Windows CD-ROM available during the installation. When 
Widows prompt you if you want to keep an already installed newer file, 
answer ‘Yes’. 

Note: 

In a very limited number of cases, Windows 98 or Me hangs during 
installation of drivers for new network adapters. When your computer 
does not respond within a few minutes, restart, go to the network 
properties and remove the adapter from the list. Restart and try to install 
again. This is not a problem in the product or its drivers, but is caused by 
Windows. 

Note:

 

Windows may display a message saying than the driver has not been 
signed. Since this does not affect the installation or functionality of the 
device, click on ‘Continue Anyway’.

 

 

Checking after the installation 

After installing the device and the programs, the following items are installed on your 
computer and can be checked. 
 
Taskbar 
– Icon in the right-hand corner, such as  
 

Note:

 

The icon shown above can be displayed in three different colours: green, 
yellow and white. 
Chapter 7.2.1 explains the meaning of these different colours.
