If the installation was not successful

Be sure to close all Windows applications before you start the installation.

If you start the installation while other programs are running, a malfunction may occur. This is especially true for programs that require large amounts of system resources, such as virus-check software.

Be sure not to connect the Net MD to your computer before you start the installation.

If the dedicated USB cable is connected to your computer before the installation, the installation cannot be done correctly. Connect the dedicated USB cable after the installation completed.

Make sure your computer has enough hard disk drive space.

120MB of free space or more on the hard disk drive is required. If your computer does not have enough space, the installation may not be possible.
