If the GS-10 is already connected to your computer and a message of “Add New Hardware Wizard” is displayed, go to the included CD-ROM folder named DRIVER\USB_XP2k, open the file Readme_e.htm, and read the “Troubleshooting” section entitled “You attempted to install using the above procedure, but were not able to.”
