AMD AwayMode Device
Version 1.0.1 

DESCRIPTION:

This INF file removes the unresolved hardware detection (YELLOW BANG! associated with devices that do not have the proper driver installed) only.  Currently, there is no driver associated with this INF file.

REQUIREMENTS:

AMD platforms equipped with an “AwayMode” ACPI device, running on Windows 2000, XP and Server 2003. 

NOTE:  As with all driver installations, you need to login as Administrator or have administrator rights for your domain login.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:

To install the Null INF, copy the installation files to a temporary directory, then use the “Device Manager” to perform an "Update Driver" operation as follows.  

1) Right Click on "My Computer" and select "Properties".
2) Select the "Hardware Tab" and hit the "Device Manager" button.

Note:  	There should be a device section named "Other devices" (big yellow question mark) with a device named “Unknown device". 

3) Right-click on "Unknown device" and select "Properties". Click on the “Details” tab
    to be sure the “Device Instance Id” starts with “ACPI\AWY0001”.
4) Select "Install from a list or specific location (Advanced)".
5) Click "Next" to continue.
6) Select "Don't search. I will choose the driver to install."
7) Click "Next" to continue.
8) Click on "Have Disk".
9) Specify the temporary directory location of inf file (AmdAway.inf).
10) An entry "AMD AwayMode" should appear under the "Model" Section.
11) Select that entry and click "Next" to continue.
12) A box will appear "The wizard has finished installing the software for
      "AMD AwayMode" and click "Finish".

UNINSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:

1) Delete the "Oemx.inf" file from the "%windir%\inf" directory that contains the 
    header "AmdAway.inf ".  This "Oemx.inf" should have been created from the
    previous driver installation, and must be deleted to prevent the OS from  
    re-installing the "AMD AwayMode" on the next system restart.

2) Right click on "My Computer" and select "Properties".
3) Click on the "Hardware" tab, and then click on the "Device Manager" button.
4) Under the "System devices" section there should be a device named
    "AMD AwayMode". Right-click on it, select "Uninstall", and follow the dialog boxes
    to complete the "uninstall" process.
