MaXiO under Windows 8.1, Windows 8, Windows 7 and Windows Vista

Please note that this driver is only intended for 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 8.1. The instructions below focus on Windows 8.1, however the process is identical on all other Windows versions. Please note that it is very important that your MaXiO PCI or MaXiO PCIe card is using at least firmware version AA550008. If you are installing it the first time under a higher Windows version than Windows XP, this will be required to check before you install this driver.

Installation

Make sure that you have downloaded and unzipped the driver file. Install the MaXiO hardware in your computer if not already done. If you are just booting your system, Windows might detect the hardware as a new device and a Found New Hardware dialog will appear automatically. If so, click Cancel.

To start the installation, launch the setup program, which is an .exe file that is inside the driver download, by double clicking on it. Typically the filename is something like MaXiO_driver_vX.YY_setup.exe where X.YY is the version number of the driver. When launching the installer, Windows might display a security message. Make sure to allow the installation. After that, the following dialog will appear:

Click Next and then the following dialog will appear:

Now click Install. Files are now being copied. After some time an additional dialog will appear:

Confirm this by clicking Next. Again some files are being copied and typically you will be prompted with a Windows Security message like this:

Confirm it by clicking Install. After a while the installation then will be completed and the following dialog will appear:

Once you see this, click Finish. On some systems it might be good to reboot the computer manually now. You will see that the MaXiO control panel is now automatically being loaded and displayed - the installation is finished.

Uninstallation

In case you need to uninstall the driver at a later time, you will find it under the list of installed Programs in Windows Control Panel. You can simply remove it there.
