Installing the driver
(Windows)
What is a driver?
A driver is software that allows data to be transferred
between the FA-66 and application software running on
your computer when the FA-66 is connected to your
computer via a FireWire (IEEE 1394) cable.
The driver sends data from your application software to
the FA-66, and from the FA-66 to your application
software. The driver is required in order for you to use the
FA-66 while connected to your computer.

has administrative privileges (e.g., Administrator).
