Chapter 4 Software Installation

Windows

A driver is NOT required for Windows Vista, but may be required for a Windows XP installation. You should first install your 3rd Party card and connect Magma ExpressBox1 following instructions as described in Chapter 2. Only if you are having problems with your Windows XP system should you install the Magma ExpressCard drivers.

Before attempting to install anything on a Windows XP system, you should ensure that you have set a new Restore Point. See your Windows XP manual to learn how to set a new Restore Point. You should ensure that all data files are closed and that you have a current backup.

STOP

Before installing drivers, you should ensure that you have a current system backup of all of your important data.

Failure to follow these instructions exactly could result in a system lock-up and potential loss of data.

ƒBe logged in as ‘System Administrator’

ƒFollow the installation instructions provided in this guide
