  Trying to install your sound driver? - Getting Errors?

  by: rachsjc on 20-Mar-2008 06:17:55 AM

  Pros: Now that I actually got it installed, my computer HAS SOUND. That is all I really wanted, my sound driver to PLAY SOUND.

  Cons: IThis new "Vinyl Codec Combo Driver" was a pain. I finally got it to install by doing the following:

  Extracting contents of the downloaded file vinyl_v700b.zip to a folder.

  In the folder there is a ISSCRIPT Installer Program, Run It. After it has completed you should be able to run the SETUP program for the driver.

  It worked for me anyway - and it wasn't in the 114KB Help File

  (Detailed instructions - if you needed more help)

  1. Right Click on "vinyl_v700b.zip" - Click: EXTRACT ALL

  2. Follow the prompts - Click "Next" then "Next" again.

  3. Finally you will have a new folder "vinyl_v700b"

  4. Open this folder, look for a file called "ISSCRIPT"

  5. Double-Click on "ISSCRIPT" to run program. Follow the prompts to install ISSCRIPT on your computer. "Click FINISH"

  6. You should now be able to run the SETUP without any errors.
