Installing OMEGA 2.6 software
WARNING: Do not exit or cancel the OMEGA 2.6 installation once it has begun.
Exiting the installation process before completion will damage your security keys.
Note: Preference settings from previous OMEGA installations are maintained if a new version
is loaded on top of a previous version without doing an uninstall first.

parallel OMEGA 1.5x key), or on a system with two USB ports (for a USB
OMEGA 1.5x key)
