2. Installing the board in the PC

(The following description refers to Windows XP. Obviously, on
another operating system it might be different.)

Make sure that all installation files have been copied to your
hard disk to a new folder, say, LCIC-WIM.

Connect the LCIC-WIM board to your PC.

The ‘Found New Hardware Wizard’ appears.
Select the last option like this:

Click ‘Next’.
