To install the driver:

3. Open the Driver folder.
4. Double-click the Setup.exe file.
5. Follow the on-screen prompts to install the device drivers and restart the computer when prompted.
6. Once Windows has restarted, connect the video capture card to your computer.
7. Your computer will automatically complete the driver installation.

To verify that the driver installed correctly:

1. Press Windows Key + R, type devmgmt.msc, and click OK.
2. Expand the Sound, video and game controllers section and verify that both devices are listed (USB EMP Audio Device for audio and USB 2821 Device for video).
