Chapter 2 Installing drivers and host cards
Installing device drivers and utilities onto your system
To install or enable the FAST device drivers on your system proceed as follows;
1. Turn on your PC and if required, log in.
If you have installed any new PCI host cards, a Found New Hardware message is briefly
shown followed by the Found New Hardware wizard as shown in the pictures.
2. In the Found New Hardware wizard click on the
Cancel
button.
3. Download the lastest FAST driver zip file from the Perle website for your operating
system:
pserial-x86.zip
for 32-bit Windows operating systems.
pserial-amd64.zip
for 64-bit Windows operating systems.
pserial-ia64.zip
for 64-bit Windows Itanium operating systems.
4. Unzip the driver zip file to a local directory. We recommend that you use the
pserial-setup-<
arch
>.exe
file, which will launch the installation wizard, to install the
FAST driver.
