When you plug the board into your PC, the message “Found
New Hardware” appears. When that occurs, open your Control
Panel and then open the System Menu. Click the Hardware tab
and then click the Device Manager. In the Device Manager
window look for an item called Other Devices between
Network Adapters and Ports (COM & LPT). If you see Other
Devices, then you must install the drivers. Proceed to Step b.
If you don’t see Other Devices, then expand the Ports (COM &
LPT) item and look for USB Serial Port (COM X), where X is an
integer. If you see the USB Serial Port, then the XP found the
drivers and installed them. Proceed to Step 3.
In the Device Manager window, expand the Other Devices
item. Right click on USB <- -> Serial and click Update Driver.
This will launch the Found New Hardware Wizard. In the
Wizard menu select Install from a list or specific location and
click Next.

Finish and note that the COM (Ports & LPT) item in the Device
Manager window now contains an item called USB Serial Port
(COM X), where X is an integer number. You will need to know
the value of X, so make a note of it.
