After the Adapter has been physically connected to your computer, Windows
will detect the new hardware.

Windows asks you for the original Windows CD-ROM, insert the CD-ROM,
and direct Windows to the proper location for the CD-ROM (e.g., D:\).
Congratulations! The installation of the Wireless-B PCI Adapter is 
complete.
If you want to check the link information, search for available wireless
