2.4.2 For Windows Vista or 7
During the installation the GSC300 Interface installer will copy the driver folder to your
desktop. Do not delete this folder until you finish these steps. You must have the
Presto connected to the computer before continuing.
1. When you plug in the USB cable windows may attempt to install the drivers but
then fail. You may see one popup at the bottom of the screen saying it is
installing the drivers and then a second one saying it has failed. This is normal.
2. In the Start Menu right click on Computer (located on the right hand side of the
Start Menu when you open it up) and click Properties on the button of the menu
that appears.
3. A new window will appear. Click on “Device Manager” in the list on the left hand
side of the window.
4. A new window – Device Manager – should open.
Windows 7 Users: Scroll down to “Other Devices” section and expand it if it is not
expanded. You should see “ASIX PRESTO”
Vista Users: Scroll down to “Universal Serial Bus controllers” section and expand
it if it is not expanded. You should see “ASIX PRESTO programmer”.
All Users: There should be a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark beside the
name. If the yellow icon is not present the drivers are already installed.
5. Right click on “ASIX PRESTO” entry and click “Update Driver Software” in the
menu that appears.
6. A new window will appear – “Update Driver Software”. Select the section option
“Browse my computer for driver software”.
7. On the next screen click the Browse button. A new small window will open. Click
on “Desktop” at the very top of the window and then click the OK button. The
window will disappear and you will be back at the previous window.
8. Ensure the “Include subfolders” is checked and click next.
9. Windows will find the drivers and ask you whether you want to install them. Click
the “Install Button”.
Vista Users: You will get a warning popup saying “Windows can’t verify the
publisher of this driver software”. Click the “Install this driver software anyway”.
10. Windows will install the drivers.
