 PortIO32: Xbox 360 Device Driver
 ----------------------------------------------------


 Install Driver Manually:

 The driver/library installation procedure is very similar on all versions of Windows except Windows NT (see below).
 The driver is installed using the "Add Hardware" option of the Control Panel. Since there is no hardware that will
 be detected automatically by Windows, the PortIO32 driver will need to be installed by manually selecting a driver,
 using the "Have Disk" button to point Windows to this directory. More detailed instructions are available
 below:
