The Digitizer Capture Card is packed in anti-static material, and should be kept in 
this material until the user is ready to install it. 

 

Follow the instructions below for installing the Digitizer PCI Card: 

  Verify that all power is off to the PC and disconnect all cables. 

  Remove the PC cover. 

  Find an empty PCI slot and remove the backing slot. 

  Remove the Digitizer Capture Card from the anti-static bag, and insert it 

securely within the empty PCI slot. 

  Fasten the Digitizer Capture Card securely with a screw, and replace the 

PC cover. 

  The Digitizer Capture Card can be connected to your input device through 

the DVI, HD15, S-Video, or Composite connectors.   

  Attach the applicable cable(s) (DVI, HD15, S-Video, Composite) to the 

appropriate connector on the input device, and attach the other end to 
your Digitizer Capture Card. 

  After power up, wait for the “Found New Hardware” wizard to install 

digitizer driver card. 

  If no 'Found new Hardware' wizard appears or it had to be canceled 

earlier, go to Start / Control Panel / Add new hardware and 'Found new 
Hardware' wizard will appear.  

  Proceed with 'Found new Hardware' wizard: Point at the "ncastwd1.inf" 

file, which will contain installation instruction for the driver. If “Found new 
Hardware” wizard asks you to connect to Windows Update to download 
new software, select: "No, not this time". Installation

 wizard will warn 

you, that the driver for "Ncast Digitizer" does not have windows 
certificate. Choose "Continue anyway" and proceed with the 
installation. 

 

Files copied to your system 

 

Windows during installation will copy the following files to your system: 
 
1. ncastwd1.inf 

that will be renamed to  "oemXXX.inf" and copied into 

"\Windows\inf" directory. 
 
2. ncastwd1.sys 

that will be copied into "\windows\system32\drivers" directory 

 
3. ncastwd1.ax 

that will be copied into "\windows\system32" directory 

 
Windows will create a few additional windows registry entries as well.
