7. Once the first set of drivers finishes installing, Windows 98SE may require the other two USB drivers to
also be installed. This will depend on what USB audio devices have previously been used on your
system. Simply follow the procedure outlined above until all the required USB drivers have been loaded.
8. Once all of the required drivers have been installed, Windows 98SE will start. We recommend rebooting
your computer to ensure all changes take effect. Your driver installation for the MD-Port I/O is now
complete.
Windows Millennium Edition
Note: According to Microsoft knowledge base article Q280127 some systems running Windows ME may
require an operating system update for USB audio recording devices to work correctly. We recommend
installing this operating system update before installing the MD-Port I/O. The necessary update is called
280127USAM.exe and can be obtained directly from Microsoft.
1. There's no need to turn your computer off when plugging the MD-Port I/O in for the first time. Locate
your computer's USB port and plug the supplied USB cable in. Now plug the MD-Port I/O into the other
end of the USB cable. We recommend you don’t plug the MD-Port I/O into a USB hub - other devices on
the hub may interfere with the USB audio data, causing pops and clicks in your recordings.
2. Windows ME will open a New Hardware Found window and let you know it's found the MD-Port I/O. It
will then start loading drivers for a USB Composite Device, USB Human Interface Device, or USB Audio
Device, depending on what components have already been installed on your system. Click Next .
3. In the Add New Hardware Wizard , place a check next to the option Automatic Search for a Better Driver
(Recommended) and click Next .
4. The Add New Hardware Wizard will load a Windows Driver folder. When it has completed loading the
drivers from this folder, the Add New Hardware Wizard will let you know it has finished installing a new
hardware device. Click on Finish . If during this process, Windows ME notifies you that there’s a version
conflict and that a file being copied is older than a file currently on your computer, click Yes to keep the
existing file.
5. Once the first set of drivers has finished installing, Windows ME may require the other two USB drivers
to also be installed. This will depend on what USB audio devices have previously been used on your
system. Simply follow the procedure outlined above until all required USB drivers have been installed.
6. Once all required drivers have been installed, Windows ME will start. We recommend rebooting your
computer to ensure all changes take effect. Your driver installation for the MD-Port I/O is now complete.
Windows 2000 installation
1. There's no need to turn off your computer when plugging the MD-Port I/O in for the first time. Locate
your computer's USB port and plug the supplied USB cable in. Now plug the MD-Port I/O into the other
end of the USB cable. We recommend you don’t plug the MD-Port I/O into a USB hub - other devices on
the hub may interfere with the USB audio data, causing pops and clicks in your recordings.
2. Windows 2000 will automatically detect the addition of a new USB interface. It will automatically
update your USB drivers, including USB Composite Device, USB Human Interface Device, and USB
Audio Device.
3. Once Windows 2000 has completed updating the USB drivers, it should automatically set the MD-Port
I/O as your preferred multimedia device.
Getting started
There are 3 simple steps to using your MD-Port I/O. Please read through the following carefully as it contains
detailed instructions. The 3 steps that you will be guided through take the following general form:
Step 1: Runs through plugging the MD-Port I/O into your computer, automatically installing the necessary
drivers, and loading the included software on your system.
Step 2: Runs through connecting your MD-Port I/O to your MiniDisc or NetMD recorder and recording music
from your computer.
Step 3: Runs through connecting your MiniDisc or NetMD recorder to the MD-Port I/O and recording music
back into your PC.
Step one
Getting your MD-Port I/O going is as simple as plugging it into a primary USB port of any computer running
Windows 98SE, Windows ME, Windows 2000, or Windows XP. There's no need to load any special software,
but you will have to follow a few easy steps to initiate the Windows USB audio drivers.
Windows 98SE installation
Note: If you experience any trouble loading the USB drivers, please ensure that you have installed all of the
latest software updates from your computer manufacturer, especially the ones for your computer’s soundcard.
If you’re still having problems after this, refer to the troubleshooting section at the end of this user manual
for further instructions.

Windows 98SE CD. In this case, put your Windows 98SE CD into the CD-ROM drive and direct the
installer to the Win98 folder on the CD and click Next .
5. The Wizard will now let you know it has located drivers for a USB Composite Device, USB Human
Interface Device, or USB Audio Device and will identify these drivers under the heading Location of
