10. Driver and Firmware
10.1 Driver Installation
After the HDSPe RayDAT 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 fur-
ther instructions which appear on your computer screen. The driver files are located in the di-
rectory
\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 HDSPe RayDAT 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
HDSPe AES /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.
