At the bottom of the Hardware Drivers Dialog box is a radio button at
the bpttpm left and an 'active' buttom on the right. If the driver #173
i activated theleft radio button should be green. If not you can
activate it by pressing the right hand 'activate' button.
BUT I recommend you don't. actibate the driver below that - #96 - or
better still the recommended one below that which I feel will work
better with your card.
