Setting up Windows 3.1x for
Dialup Access to Sound Internet

Diskette Kit Before September 1997

Before You Begin

These instructions are for Windows 3.1x and Windows for Workgroups only. If you are running Windows95 or any other operating system please see the appropriate pages for those operating systems.
You should read through these instructions thoroughly and print out a copy before you continue.
This installation procedure assumes you have a basic working knowledge of Windows 3.1 and MS-DOS commands.
It is always a good idea to make a backup of any important files on your system before installing software or making changes to your system.
This installation will require you to have your Windows setup disks available. If Windows came pre-installed on your system, your computer manufacturer should have supplied you with disks.

Remove Any Existing Internet Software

If you are using software provided to you by Sound Internet for use with Windows 3.1x simply delete the directory tree C:\INET. To do this you may start an MS-DOS prompt and type:
```
deltree c:\inet
```
If you are using a third-party Internet software package. Please check with that software's documentation for instructions on how to un-install the software.
If you are currently a user of a commercial online service such as America Online, Prodigy, Compuserve or Netcom, it is important to note that they may interfere with a normal Internet connection. You may wish to contact these companies directly for any information on possible conflicts with your Sound Internet service.
