When installing a PCI device such as a Blue Heat PCI board under Windows95, an error may occur where the board's driver/INF file might not be recognized correctly. In these cases the install will state that the correct driver was not found on the computer or floppy disk. This can be due to the BIOS not having the PnP features turned on correctly.

If a problem such as this occurs, try going into the BIOS setup screen and verify that the PCI/PnP features are turned on. Then try to update or reinstall the associated driver.
