• Before you install the USB MIDI driver, you can minimize the possibility of
problems by putting your computer in the following state.
• Close all applications and windows that you are not using.
• Disconnect all cables from the TYROS except for the cable whose
driver you are installing.
Installing the driver on a Windows 98/Me system
1
Start the computer.
2
Insert the included CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.
3
Make sure the POWER switch on the TYROS is set to OFF
and use the USB cable to connect the USB terminal of the
computer (or the USB hub) to the USB terminal of the
TYROS. When the TYROS is turned on, the computer auto-
matically displays the "Add New Hardware Wizard." If the
Add New Hardware Wizard does not appear, click "Add New
Hardware" in the Control Panel.
