driver on computers running Windows to keep the hardware popup wizard from
displaying every time you connect your My Passport drive to your computer.
Note: If you install the WD SmartWare software, the SES Driver is automatically
installed as well.
The following topics are included in this appendix:

After you physically connect the drive as shown in Figure 2 on page 6, the Found New
Hardware screen displays.
Installing the Driver Automatically

the Found New Hardware screen. Close those two screens.

connect to Windows Update. Click Next.
