These instructions will help you install your LEI Card Reader on your
computer. The card reader (sometimes called a card reader/writer or
card programmer) is designed for use with a USB port.
NOTE
Your package may include a USB1 or USB2 card reader. The USB1
readers have "MMC\SD CARD READER" on the label. The USB2
readers are labeled "2.0 MMC\SD CARD READER." When
prompted to select which driver to install, be sure to pick the driver
that matches the label on your reader.
This device acts like an additional removable disk drive under Micro-

vices about the size of a postage stamp.
Minimum requirements are: a computer equipped with a USB port; Mi-

WINDOWS 98 CAUTION:
Some older PCs running Windows 98 or Windows 98SE may
have hardware issues that cause conflicts with USB ports.
Some of the symptoms include Windows shut down problems or
the system locks-up while performing various functions.
If you experience these problems after installing your card
reader, uninstall the card reader and its driver software. Then
visit the web site www.usbman.com for possible solutions.
NOTE: Before installing MapCreate 6.3, plug the card reader
into the USB port and let Windows recognize it and install the
card reader driver. Then proceed with MapCreate installation.
At the end of the process, MapCreate will install its own drivers
for USB1 or USB2. Follow the on-screen instructions.
If you are installing MapCreate 6.3, the install program will prompt
you to install the correct card reader drivers after MapCreate is in-
stalled. If you purchased this card reader separately, plug the card
reader into the USB port and let Windows recognize it and install the
card reader driver, then insert the CD provided with the reader and
follow these instructions:
