WARNING: Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the incorrect use of Registry Editor can be solved. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.

For information about how to edit the registry, view the "Changing Keys And Values" Help topic in Registry Editor (Regedit.exe) or the "Add and Delete Information in the Registry" and "Edit Registry Data" Help topics in Regedt32.exe. Note that you should back up the registry before you edit it.

1. Expand the file system._ from the <platform> directory on the distribution CD to "c:\temp\system.".
2. Copy the <platform> directory a server share point.
3. Run REGEDT32.EXE, to edit the registry.
4. From the Window menu chose HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
5. From the Registry menu select "Load Hive" and enter the path "c:\temp\system.".
6. Enter the name "Madge", when the system prompts for a Key Name
7. Find the following section:
   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Madge\System\ControlSet01\Services \Pcmcia\Database\MADGE\SMART 16/4 PCMCIA RINGNO
8. In this section, change the name of the file pointed to by the "Driver" from "madgemport" to "mdgmport".
9. Select the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Madge key again, and from the Registry menu select "Unload Hive"
10. Select "OK" to the dialog that gets displayed.
11. Exit the Registry editor.
12. Delete the "system._" from the Server Distribution point created in step 2 above and place the "system." from the c:\test directory into the Server Distribution point. This file will now contain all the needed registry settings to allow the Madge driver to load during setup.
