"Install Automatically." Click on the button marked "Continue Anyway," and

trouble-shooting guide at the end of this manual.
Note: If you accidentally plugged the trackIR unit into your computer before
loading the NaturalPoint software, unplug the trackIR unit and go through the
install procedure as instructed. After completing all 10 steps, go to the
Windows XP Device Manager, click on USB Devices and look for a listing
marked "Unknown USB Device." If this listing appears, right click on
Unknown USB Device and delete it. If Unknown USB Device does not
appear, you may close the Device Manager and begin using the trackIR.
