higher operating systems. It may not work correctly for Windows 98, ME or 2000. We recommend using the Serial

drivers for it. There are two drivers that will be installed, one right after the other. These drivers are available on this
web site at Downloading USB Drivers for the TRAX Flex HS, on the installation CD for the TRAXPro software, and as
part of the Windows Update feature available from Microsoft using an Internet connection.
