The installation package offers two installation utilities, "setup32.exe"
and "setup64.exe" for Vista / Win7 or XP operating systems. Double-
click on either "setup64.exe" or "setup32.exe", depending on your
operating system: the driver will be installed in your PC. Restart your
PC or Notebook and connect the VIVACE to the host for the first time.

free of charge, but needs to be adapted for DSD playback
capability. Here is what to do:
