				     F.A.Q.

 Q: Why all icons are greyish? On my color scheme (grey panels) they are looks
    horrific. Whether it is possible to make them more brightly?
 : It is possible, but I so shall not make, since these icons do not go with 
    a plug-in, and undertake directly from system, for economy of the size of 
    a plug-in. Try another color scheme.

 Q: Whether it is possible to add support Win98? Simply not everyone use XP.
 A: Unfortunately support 98/ME is not possible. It not my whim, this is
    Specificity OS. Under 98 is possible only display the list of devices. Opening 
    dialogue of properties for the device, creation a set of drivers, etc. - 
    impossible. In Windows SDK about it is not present words, and experimentally
    I could not understand. Therefore 98 also is not supported. Probably, will appear
    version under 98/ME, but from all functions of a plug-in remain only reserve
    copying of drivers (IMHO the most important function).

 Q: What for the opportunity of creation of a set of drivers is made? I have 
    driver on a compact disc from the manufacturer, and I always install drivers 
    from him.
 A: It is necessary first for system administrators. It is possible to collect 
    all drivers in one folder,necessary to system and to not search for a disk the 
    driver(that is especially actual for Internet-Cafe,where CD ROM on each machine
    you will not plug). Besides, some device manufacturers make out drivers as 
    exe-files, where with main driver files installed also additional features, 
    not always necessary(IMHO). For example: Creative EAX Demo, Acer On-line
    manual,etc.

 Q: Why for my soundcard Creative SB LIVE! 5.1 standard Windows Device Manager
    shows files which are not present in a set of drivers?
 A: Some driver files of soundcards are delivered with Windows. For example,
    ks.sys. Especially it is appreciable for the integrated soundcards.

 Q: Why a plug-in does not work :( ?
 A: Write to me e-mail with the detailed description of a problem, and wait for a
    answer on your question.
