DESCRIPTION:  Unpacks the files needed to install Windows NT 3.51 audio

referenced models.  Optionally allows a driver diskette to be created.

HOW TO USE:

1. Download the SoftPaq to a temporary, EMPTY directory on your 
hard drive.  The file downloaded is a self-extracting executable 
with a filename based on the SoftPaq Number above.

2. From the download directory, execute the SoftPaq.  When executed 
with no parameters, files are extracted into the current directory.
To extract the files into a different directory, specify the complete 
path of the directory as a parameter:

     SPxxxx <path> 

Enter "Y" to confirm and files are unpacked into the download 
directory or the directory specified.  A subdirectory is also
created containing ESS driver files.  

3. After the files have been created, you may delete the  
self-extracting file downloaded in step 1.

4. The driver may be installed directly from the files on the download 
directory or a driver diskette can be created.  
To create a driver diskette, run MAKEDISK.BAT.
To install the driver, from the Control Panel select:
   Sound Driver/Change/Have Disk
Type in the path to the download directory containing the files 
extracted in step 2 and press enter:
   c:\<path>\
Or if installing from a created diskette, enter:
   a:\
Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.

5. When the installation is complete, shut down and restart the computer 
for the new driver to take effect.
