!!!!! Driver Update: !!!!!

This driver includes a changed hdsp32.inf file. To prevent Windows 2000/XP from using an old hdsp32.inf (of a former driver installation) be sure NOT to let Windows search for the driver! Instead tell Windows what to do:

- Under Control Panel /System /Device Manager /Sound, Video and Game Controllers /RME Hammerfall DSP or HDSP 96xx/Properties /Driver you'll find the 'Update Driver' button. Select 'Install from a list or specific location (advanced)', click 'Next', select 'Don't search I will choose the driver to install', click 'Next', then 'Have Disk'. Now point to the driver update.

- After the installation perform a cold boot. Multiface/Digiface: also be sure to reset the I/O-box by pulling the Firewire cable. The CardBus system requires to remove the I/O-box power supply for a second.

- After the reboot open TotalMix and click on Preset 1.
