Installing drivers
To install the Armatix iS1 device under Windows XP, follow the instructions
below:
•
Use the iS1 driver CD or download the latest drivers from the Armatix web site
and unzip them to a location on your PC.
•
If you are running Windows XP or Windows XP SP 1, temporarily disconnect
your PC from the Internet. This can be done by either removing the network
cable from your PC or by disabling your network card by going to the "Control
Panel\Network and Dial-Up Connections", right-clicking on the appropriate
connection and selecting "Disable" from the menu. The connection can be re-
enabled after the installation is complete. This is not necessary under
Windows XP SP 2 if configured to ask before connecting to Windows Update.
Windows XP SP 2 can have the settings for Windows Update changed
through "Control Panel\System" then select the "Hardware" tab and click
"Windows Update".
•
Connect the device to a spare USB port on your PC. Once the composite
driver has been installed Windows Found New Hardware Wizard will launch. If
there is no available Internet connection or Windows XP SP 2 is configured to
ask before connecting to Windows Update, the screen shown in Figure 2.1 is
displayed. Select "No, not this time" from the options available and then click
"Next" to proceed with the installation. If there is an available internet
connection, Windows XP will silently connect to the Windows Update website
and install any suitable driver it finds for the device in preference to the driver
manually selected.
