DESCRIPTION:  Creates a diskette containing an update to enhance performance 
and fix some game issues with the InterWave Audio Controller used in the 
above-mentioned Presario models.  

This corrects the issue where audio fails when running an application that 
uses DirectX Version 5.x.

The update performs a complete uninstall of the existing InterWave drivers, 
followed by a reinstall of the updated drivers when the system is restarted 
and recognizes a new Plug and Play device.

HOW TO USE:

1. Obtain a formatted 1.44-MB diskette.

2. Download the SoftPaq to a directory on your hard drive and change 
to that directory.  The file that is downloaded is an executable with 
a filename based on the SoftPaq Number above.

3. From that drive and directory, execute the downloaded file 
and follow the on-screen instructions.  You will be prompted to 
insert the formatted diskette in a drive to create the diskette.

4. After the diskette has been created, you may delete the  
SoftPaq file downloaded in step 2.

5. Refer to README.1st on the diskette for instructions on installing 
and using the software.  When prompted to restart the computer after the 
uninstall completes, remove the diskette before restarting.  Then reinsert 
the diskette when prompted for a driver diskette.
