1. Driver update under Windows 2000/XP

To prevent Windows 2000/XP to perform only partial driver updates, be sure NOT to let Windows search for the driver! Instead tell Windows what to do:

- Under Control Panel /System /Device Manager /Sound, Video and Game Controllers /RME DIGI 96xx /Properties /Driver you'll find the 'Update Driver' button. Select 'Install from a list or specific location (advanced)', click 'Next', select 'Don't search I will choose the driver to install', click 'Next', then 'Have Disk'. Now point to the driver update.

-------------------------------------------

2. First-time Installation under Windows 2000/XP

Insert the card(s)s, boot, enjoy Plug and Play (do not click on 'select from list', simply hit enter until the path to the driver files is asked).

In case the warning message 'Digital signature not found' comes up: Don't worry, continue installation.

When more than one card is installed do not reboot at this time, but first finish the installation process of the other cards. Have a look at the Taskbar - the hardware manager is already started once for each card.

Finally reboot.

In case the installation succeeds ALL supplied driver files will be copied to the system, all cards will be shown with their correct name in the Device Manager, and the System Tray shows the green card symbol to access the RME DIGI Settings dialog.
