The following procedure will allow reinstallation of Mwave MIDI samples on Mxx Win3.x-OS/2 systems.
Using Windows 3.11:
With an M Series Aptiva no option is given to selectively uninstall the MIDI samples which includes the device drivers.
However, you can reinstall the device drivers using the update driver diskettes extracted from the following : MWMIDI01.EXE, MWMIDI02.EXE, MWMIDI03.EXE that are available from IBM as shown below.
The required files may be downloaded from the IBM Bulletin Board; (919) 517-0001 or from the IBM Web site. After downloading the files to your hard drive, run each file to create the diskettes. Place a blank formated diskette in the floppy drive and enter the file name in the run function to expand the files to a floppy diskette. Also, please read the README.TXT file on any of the diskettes. If you are upgrading MIDI Samples, you should also install the updated Mwave files for Windows, DOS, and OS/2 (operating system dependent).
