### Installing the Driver

Use this procedure to install a Digi device driver on Microsoft Windows 2000.

Note: If you installed your adapter before performing this procedure, go to Completing an Installation instead.

#### Procedure

1. Ensure that Windows 2000 is running on your system.
2. Run the Digi Driver Upgrade Wizard before you shut down your system to install the adapter. Use one of the following methods:
   - From the Digi CD-ROM user interface, choose Install Software. The wizard runs automatically.
   - If you downloaded a driver package, use the following procedure:
     1. From the Start menu, choose Run.
     2. Enter `d:/path/dgupdate.exe` to start the wizard, where `d:/path` represents the full path to the location of the driver software.

   When the wizard runs, it automatically upgrades any installed drivers that it finds. For any new driver that is unsigned, Windows displays a "Digital Signature Not Found" message, explaining that the driver is not signed. You may see several of these warnings during the installation.

3. Choose Yes to continue through each of the warnings. This ensures that the most current driver software is installed.
4. Finish the wizard, then shut down your system.
5. Install the adapter according to the hardware installation instructions.
6. Apply power to the system and start Windows 2000. Windows will automatically detect the new adapter and install the correct device driver.
7. If the driver is unsigned, choose Yes to continue through each of the "Digital Signature Not Found" warnings. This ensures that the most current driver software is installed.
8. Follow the instructions to complete the installation. For most Digi adapters, a configuration wizard starts automatically as part of the installation process.

   Refer to the on-line help system for assistance. When the installation is complete, the adapter is ready to use. There is no need to restart Windows unless you are notified to do so.
