Preparing Windows Plug and Play (Windows XP and Vista)

In order to make driver installation as easy as possible, we recommend that you prepare the Windows Plug and Play system to recognize your SSL hardware automatically.

To do this, run the SSL Soundscape Driver Setup application (DrvSetup.exe) before physically installing the card in the computer. This application can be found on the Installation CD that came with your card but, if possible, please use the latest version that can be downloaded from our website.

The description below shows the procedure in Windows XP. In Vista the procedure is similar but more warnings are displayed. The first one appears as soon as you launch the DrvSetup application. Subsequent warnings may look different from the ones shown in XP. Always click the option that allows the procedure to continue.

In the application window, press the Update button to copy the driver data to your Windows installation.

• Windows will display a security warning: click Run

…followed by a warning regarding Windows Logo testing; click Continue Anyway.

At the end of the process you will see SSL Soundscape Driver Setup – Completed in the title bar. Click Done, shut down the computer and move on to installing the hardware.
