Action
This is not a malfunction.
Please wait until the Found New Hardware Wizard appears.
Once again, make sure that the SONAR V-STUDIO 100 is correctly connected to your
computer and that the power is on.
Operation may not be stable if your computer is operating on its battery. Please
connect your computer to a power supply.
Perform the installation with all USB devices (other than a mouse and keyboard)
disconnected from your computer.
Operation may be unstable if your computer does not meet the electrical requirements
of the USB specification.
In this case, you may be able to solve the problem by connecting a self-powered USB
hub (a USB hub that has an internal power supply or AC adaptor).
Refer to the SONAR V-STUDIO 100 hardware manual, and turn the system setting
"Storage" off.
If your computer or USB hub has two or more USB connectors, connecting the SONAR
V-STUDIO 100 to a different USB connector may cause the "Found New Hardware
Wizard" to appear even though the driver has already been installed.
This is not a malfunction.
Install the driver as described in "Installing the SONAR V-STUDIO 100 Driver" (p. 7).
If you connect the SONAR V-STUDIO 100 to a different USB port, the operating system
may automatically add a number at the beginning of the device name; this is not a
problem for using the SONAR V-STUDIO 100. If you want to return to the device name
without this number, you can either connect the SONAR V-STUDIO 100 to the same
USB port as when you installed the driver, or reinstall the driver. -> "Installing the
SONAR V-STUDIO 100 Driver" (p. 7)
Action
In order to install SONAR, you must log on as a user who has administrative privileges.
Installation will not occur correctly if any other user attempts this.
If the DVD drive or the SONAR VS DVD-ROM is dirty, use a commercially available
cleaner to clean it.
Close such software until installation is completed. For details on how to close the
software, refer to the documentation for your computer or for the software you're
using.
You must install from a local drive.
Your hard drive must have at least 8 GB of free space.
