Topic: installing a HDSP 9652 without original driver

Hi,

I just got a 3 year old HDSP 9652 (rev 1.6, ser 22429810, my system is xp sp2, 32bit).  I didn't get the cd rom, so I don't know which drivers came with the card originally.  I'm a little confused about how to proceed. I read I need to check the firmware with the FUT before I can use the latest driver, but I can't because the card is not installed. Is there another way to check, or might it be a good idea to use an older driver version first?

Thanks in advance

Kind regards

Re: installing a HDSP 9652 without original driver

Just install the latest driver (v3.085), and after the driver is installed you can use the Flash Update Tool to upgrade the card to a compatible firmware. In other words, you can install the newest driver when the card has an old firmware, you just can't "use" it until you flash the card.
