Installing FT8U232/245 devices under Windows 2000
This note assumes that you are installing the drivers on to a clean system, i.e. one which on which FTDI’s
drivers have not been installed previously. If this is not the case then refer to the appendix A for guidance on
uninstalling FTDI drivers before proceeding with installation.
If you have problems with installing your device please e-mail us at support@ftdi.co.uk and describe the stage
that you have reached – for example you may have reached screen 3 but screen 4 reports that Windows cannot
find a driver.
FTDI’s evaluation boards should ship with a complete set of drivers on floppy disk. Users can also download
http://www.ftdi.co.uk/support.htm. These should be unzipped onto a floppy
disk before proceeding with installation.
Plug in your device. This should bring up Found New Hardware Wizard. Note that the screenshots show the
installation of an FT8U232AM evaluation board. Installation of an FT8U245AM based device should be very
similar.
