# Installing and Uninstalling the Drivers

### Before you begin

To successfully install or uninstall the drivers or software, you must have administrative privileges on the computer completing installation.

#### To install drivers

For directions on how to install drivers for a specific operating system, select one in the table of contents.

| NOTE: If you are using an Intel® PRO/10GbE Server Adapter and an Intel PRO/1000 adapter in the same machine, the driver for the PRO/1000 adapter must be running with the PRO/1000 drivers found on this Intel software CD (or respective download package). NOTE: If you are installing a driver in a computer with existing Intel adapters, be sure to update all the adapters (and additional adapter ports, if applicable) with the same Intel driver and supplemental software. This ensures that all adapters will function and interoperate correctly.
