DS-XG Driver Installation for Win95/98:

TO FUNCTION WITH THE YMF724 AND YMF740, ALSO CALLED DS-XG, WHICH WAS

BY YAMAHA, WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU CALL THE MANUFACTURER OF
YOUR SOUND CARD TO INSTALL THEIR DRIVER. THIS DRIVER WILL NOT FUNCTION
ON ANY NON-YAMAHA SOUND CARD DUE THE FACT THAT EACH MANUFACTURER
HAVE A DIFFERENT SUB SYSTEM VENDOR ID PER MICROSOFT'S WHQL REQUIREMENTS.
