Update Microsoft MDAC

 

If you are running Windows 98 or Windows 98 Second Addition on your computer, it is necessary to update your Microsoft MDAC files prior to using the Medi-Net software for the first time.  Windows 2000 systems already have the update installed.  The following instructions will step you through the process of downloading and installing the Microsoft update file.

 

Make certain you have an active connection to the Internet, and then click on the following hyperlink.  Your browser will bring up the appropriate Microsoft web page for the update.

Select the “English” version and click “Go to Download”.

 

 

Select “Run this program from its current location”, and Click OK


The update will begin downloading.  As the file is 7.5MB in size, slow Internet connections can require a considerable amount of time to complete the download.

 

Click “Yes, I will accept”, and click “Next”.

 

 

Click “Next”.

 

You should reboot the computer at this time.

 

Note: If you reinstall Windows 98 or Windows 98 Second Edition, the MDAC will need to be updated again.
