DESCRIPTION
The files contained in this document install an updated version of drivers for the Lucent modem in your Aptiva. The update requires 2.5MB of hard drive space. Once you have installed these drivers, your modem will comply with the ITU (International Telecommunication Union) draft V.90 specification dated 2/98.

You may experience increased performance from your modem after installing these drivers; however, many factors will affect your modem connection speed. We have developed a set of Frequently Asked Questions which address some of the factors required for a high speed modem connection and other V.90 considerations. We strongly recommend that you review this information.

TO INSTALL THIS UPDATE
1. Create a directory named C:\518. To create a new directory, double click the "My Computer" icon, , located on the Windows desktop. Select the C: hard drive by double-clicking its icon. Select "File" located on the information bar and click on it. Highlight the word "New". A popup will occur. Highlight the word "Folder" and click it. The directory for the hard drive will appear with a new folder in it. The name for the new folder will be "New Folder". Change the name to 518 by typing 518 and then pressing the Enter key. You have created a folder named 518 on your C: drive.

2. Download the file LT518.EXE into C:\518 directory on your hard drive.

3. Double-click on the icon labeled LT518.EXE. The files contained inside LT518.EXE will be uncompressed when you run it. The files will appear in the C:\518 directory. When the process finishes, close the DOS window that was opened.

NOTES AND CONSIDERATIONS
The capability of the modem you purchased with your Aptiva system should be reflected in the sales literature that came with your PC. If your Aptiva does not have a 56K-upgradeable Lucent modem, these new drivers will not make your 33.6K Lucent modem perform at "56K type" speeds.

Returning to your Previous level of Drivers
We have included the 4.23 level of drivers for your modem. If you want to return to that level, run EMER.BAT by selecting "Start" in the lower left hand corner of your desktop, then "Run" then typing in "C:\518\EMER.BAT" on the command line and click OK. EMER.BAT deletes the 5.18 files, then extracts EMER.EXE. The files contained inside EMER.EXE will be uncompressed when you run it. You can then run SETUP.EXE and re-install the 4.23 drivers by selecting "Start", then "Run", and then typing in "C:\518\SETUP.EXE".

Please view the README.TXT contained in LT518.EXE for additional notes. You will be able to find this file in the C:\518 directory on your hard drive.
