5.1.2 Installing the driver software - Windows NT

Windows NT does not support ‘plug and play’ so there will be no indication that a new card has been installed. The device driver for NextMove PCI must be installed from the Baldor Motion Toolkit CD.

1.Place the Baldor Motion Toolkit CD into the CDROM drive. The CD should auto-run and display the opening page. If auto-run is disabled, browse the CD and double click the file SETUP.HTM.

2.Go to the NextMove PCI area and select the NextMove PCI NT Device Driver option. Once the device driver has been installed, shut down all applications and restart the PC. The device driver will now be loaded automatically each time Windows is started.

Note: If you are upgrading your device driver from a previous release, you must first uninstall the old device driver. To do this, go to the Windows Control Panel, select ‘Add/Remove Programs’ and then select ‘NextMove PCI Device Driver’ from the list.

On the CD, the Windows NT driver is located in the folder Drivers\nmPCI\winnt.

5.1.3 Installing the driver software - Windows 2000

The Windows NT device driver is used with Windows 2000, but is installed differently.

1.After installing the NextMove PCI card, turn on the PC.

2.Enter the BIOS and disable the ‘Plug and Play’ option or select ‘Operating system is not plug and play compatible’. Exit the BIOS and allow Windows 2000 to boot normally. When Windows 2000 has loaded it will enter the Hardware Wizard.

3.Select ‘Search for a suitable device driver’, and click Next.

4.Remove the checks from all the search locations, and click Next.

5.Select the ‘Disable the device’ option, and click Finish.

6.Restart the PC. The hardware wizard should not appear this time.

7.The Windows NT device driver can now be loaded. Place the Baldor Motion Toolkit CD into the CDROM drive. The CD should auto-run and display the opening page. If auto-run is disabled, browse the CD and double click the file SETUP.HTM.

8.Go to the NextMove PCI area and select the NextMove PCI NT Device Driver option.

Note: Although the Windows NT device driver works under Win2000, the Device Manager may report a conflict and display the NextMove PCI device along with a ! symbol. This is because the device driver is not specifically designed for Windows 2000. This will not affect operation of the NextMove PCI card.
