10. Driver and Firmware
10.1 Driver Installation
After the PCI card has been installed correctly (see 5. Hardware Installation), and the computer
has been switched on, Windows will recognize the new hardware component and start its
‘Hardware Wizard’. Insert the RME Driver CD into your CD-ROM drive, and follow further in-
structions which appear on your computer screen. The driver files are located in the directory
\WDM on the RME Driver CD.
Windows will install the Hammerfall DSP System driver, and will register the card in the system
as a new audio device. After a reboot the HDSP 9652 is ready for use.
In case the warning messages 'Digital signature not found', 'Do not install driver', 'not certified
driver' or similar come up: simply ignore them and continue with the installation.
In case the Hardware Wizard does not show up automatically after installation of the card,
do not attempt to install the drivers manually! An installation of drivers for non-recognized
hardware will cause a blue screen when booting Windows!
In Windows 7 Microsoft removed the automatic start of the Driver Software Update dialog. The-
refore this dialog has to be started manually after the failed driver installation. Hit the Win key,
type 'Device Manager', start the Device Manager by selecting it from the list and hit Enter.
The device is shown with a yellow warning symbol. Usually it is already found in the correct
category, Sound, Video and Game Controller (Plug & Play detects a multimedia device). Right
click on the device and select 'Update Driver Software' from the context menu.
The dialog
Update Driver Software appears. Now follow the instructions given below.
10.2 Driver Update
When facing problems with the automatic driver update, the user-driven way of driver installa-
tion will work.
Under >
Control Panel /System /Device Manager /Sound, Video and Game Controllers /RME
HDSP 9652 /Properties /Driver < you'll find the 'Update Driver' button.
XP : Select ' Install from a list or specific location (advanced) ', click ' Next ', select ' Don't
search I will choose the driver to install ', click ' Next ', then ' Have Disk '. Now point to the
driver update's directory.
Vista/7 : Select ' Browse my computer for driver software ', then ' Let me pick from a list of
device drivers from my computer ', then ' Have Disk '. Now point to the driver update's direc-
tory.
This method also allows for the installation of older drivers than the currently installed ones.
