3.
In the \Windows\System32\Drivers subdir, manually remove the holt1553.sys file.

In you Windows Home directory, open an Admin Cmd shell and “cd” to your AppData/Local/Temp

5.
Reboot your computer and verify that the system no longer displays the Test Mode banner on the
Desktop.
6.
Verify once again in the Device Manager if the Holt driver is present. If it is, it should be disconnected
because it is a test-signed driver which is no longer valid. Re-uninstall it if it’s present before starting
the official installation of this release below.
Mini PCIe Card Installation
1. Instruct Windows to shut down and then either physically turn off the power on your system’s power
supply or physically disconnect the power cord to the system’s power supply(s). (Some systems leave
residual power to various components when shutdown. It’s always good practice to ensure that the
power is disconnected after shutdown if you are inserting or removing internal hardware.)
2. Install the Holt Mini PCIe card using standard ESD safe handling practices (e.g. ground strap, static
limiting work-area…)
3. Insert the EV-2130mPCIe-1F/2F board(s) into the Mini PCIe slot(s) on your system’s motherboard. If
you are using Mini PCIe-to-PCIe X1 adapter boards, mount the EV-2130mPCIe-1F/2F card into the
adapter board and insert it into a PCIe X1 slot. Carefully insert the small ribbon cable to the Mini Card
J4 connector and the other end to the Break Out board on the EV-2130mPCIe-1F/2F cards. The cable
is fine pitched and the connector plastic fasteners are delicate so care must be exercised to avoid
damaging the connector.
4. Power on the system and login as normal.
