Tell the installation to look at the driver diskette that came with your PCI
adapter.   Another shortcut is to have it look in the c:\windows\system or
c:\windows directory for drivers that have been installed previously.  NOTE:
this is not a good idea (using the C:\windows\system) if you have been
having problems with an already-installed device as the software may need to
be reinstalled due to corruption.
