New on Version 2.30

When a dongle is used, the registration number (in the Configuration menu) is set to "Dongle"  (upper or lower case) and the dongle must be inserted in a USB port.

When first inserted, the device drivers must be loaded.  This is a simple operation, as described below.

Insert the dongle in the USB port and Windows will detect new hardware, and will display the wizard to load drivers.

       On the first menu do not search the internet for drivers

       On the second menu, select the option to install from a  specific location

       The location to install from is in the program files, where CnW has been loaded.  By default this will be

               c:\program files\Cnw Recovery\cnw\CDM20204

       The driver is not certified, so please accept the next dialog warning box

       Installation will then take place.  It is not necessary to reboot the PC after installation.

The installation is only required the first time the dongle is loaded on a new PC.

If the software is run without the dongle being installed, it will only operate in demo mode, ie no files will be saved.

    

The dongle is not a CnW produced device and the following link is from the manufacturer which can be used if there are problems with the driver installation - Install Manual

   

Windows 7 64 bit compatibility.  Currently there is an issue with Dongle drivers for Windows 7 64 bit.  If you wish to use CnW on such a PC, then currently the solution will be create a Virtual PC XP box.  This operates with the dongle drivers.  Alternatively, contact CnW for a licence code to work on the win 7 64 PC.
