Windows offers to search automatically for updated driver software or browse the computer for
the driver software. Don’t try the automatic installation, it will probably not work. Select to browse
manually for the driver and select for example for Windows 7 or 8 the wdmdriv\win7 folder on the
CD or Software stick.

Please don’t go deeper into the folder structure, the processor type (x86 , x64, etc.) is found
automatically. After pressing “OK” the driver installation will proceed. The device manager will
then show a “FAST ComTec MCS6 USB Driver” in a class “FAST ComTec USB Device” as
shown in Fig. 2.4

Please check the Power Saving Options in the PC Settings. If the PC goes to sleep during a
running acquisition and shuts the USB port down, the software will hang up. So it is
recommended to disable automatic going to sleep in the energy options.
