Plugging in your board for the first time

First, you will need to plug your VM167 into an available USB (1.1/2.0) port on your computer
so Windows can detect this new device.
Follow the instructions to install the hardware driver.
Step-by-step screenshot images for following operating systems are included here for
Windows XP and Windows 7.
Note that you need administrative privileges to install new hardware.

Note: If you are using the Velleman K8061 or VM140 USB board in the same PC with the
VM167, you have to install the driver from the folder \VM167DriverWinUSB .
Also if you encounter any problems with the driver installed from the folder \VM167Driver,
you can remove this driver and install the driver from the folder \VM167DriverWinUSB .
Note: Only the driver from the folder \VM167Driver is usable with Windows 2000.
