Installation Guide
------------------

 1. Determine whether your machine is a 600 or 770/770ED which has an ACP modem.
    If not, this code is not appropriate for your machine.

 2. If so, determine your current level of ACP modem code by running
    the ACP modem Quick Test utility which can be found by going to
    Windows START menu, PROGRAMS, THINKPAD MODEM, QUICKTEST.
    This will start the Quick Test application. In the upper right corner,
    you will see ThinkPad Modem x.xx (where x.xx is the release) and Build yy.
    These numbers will match one of the following:

        a. Release 2.33 Build 17
        b. Release 2.35 Build 06
        c. Release 2.35 Build 08
        d. Release 2.35 Build 10

 3. If you determine you have any of the above "a"-"c" level drivers,
    you must first update your machine to the latest level of ACP modem code.
    To do this, link to the ThinkPad website, find the ThinkPad driver matrix,
    and locate the ACP modem driver cell. From there, get the correct level
    according to your operating system and follow the instructions there for
    uninstalling and reinstalling the latest drivers.

 4. If you've completed step 3, or you have level "d" driver,
    you are now ready to apply the V.90 upgrade code.

    NOTE:  Users who currently have V.90 Upgrade version 1.0 installed can
           also upgrade to this new V.90 World Wide Upgrade.

 5. Download ACPV90E.exe from Web site

 6. Execute the ACPV90E.exe

    MODEM56K.EXE                 Asks user if they want to install upgrade.
                                 Asks user if they want to reboot at the end
                                 of the upgrade.

    MODEM56K.EXE cidautoexit     Skips user prompt which asks user if they want
                                 to upgrade. Does not reboot, although a reboot
                                 will be required. This option allows a user to
                                 shutdown other apps, etc.

    MODEM56K.EXE cidautorestart  Skips user prompt which asks user if they want
                                 to upgrade. Reboots machine when done.
                                 This option is fully automatic, but since the
                                 reboot is automatic, a user may lose data in
                                 other open applications.
