Do not connect the 3D to the PC at this time.

6— You will also be asked to unplug and
re-plug during the installation.
Note: Always use the same USB port
with your Xone:3D. When installing on a
MS Windows system, the drivers will be
associated with the USB port that you are
currently plugged into. If you attempt to use
the 3D with another USB port, or without
installing the drivers at all, the system may
work but with degraded performance (XP),
or may not work at all (2000).
7— The driver installation will complete
without reboot (XP) or ask you to reboot
your PC (2000).
When the driver installation is complete,
go back to the Utility Disk main menu and
copy the CONFIG UTILITY to your
desktop. Run this program when you are
ready to configure the soundcard
operating mode, its inputs and outputs,
change the MIDI settings, or update the
Xone:3D firmware.
