WINDOWS 95
HARDWARE CONFIGURATION
The following is a review of basic steps through the WIN95
control panel for MIDI setups. We have included this section
to help you with the task of installing your system. Please
consult your MIDI interface manuals and other
manufacturer’s Read Me files for the latest details concerning WIN95 MIDI applications.
NOTE: Be sure to also have the latest driver software for
your MIDI interface (available from the interface
manufacturer).
1. From the Start menu, select Control Panel.
2. If you haven’t installed your interface hardware, double
click on the Add New Hardware icon.

3. Follow the Wizard. (Pay no attention to the man behind
the curtain.)
4. Click Next.
5. Then, if you want WIN95 to search for your hardware, click
Yes. This may take awhile, so if you’re rarin’ to go, click No.
(Skip to step 7. Do not collect $200.)
6. Click Next again.
7. If you selected No in step 5, choose “Sound, video and game
controllers” (your interface falls somewhere into all of this).
8. Insert your MIDI interface driver diskette into drive A:
and click the Have Disk button.

9. Follow the install prompts. Now go back to the Control
Panel and double-click on the Multimedia icon.
10. Click on Advanced (we’re not messing around).
11. Click on the MIDI Devices and Instruments icon. In our
case, since we loaded the appropriate MIDI interface drivers, we have MusicQuest 8PortSE and 2PortSE interfaces
shown as options.
