Before Installation

{{#ifeq:|windows|===Windows===

Disable power saving for USB devices

This is required to prevent Windows from turning off the controller or the USB to UART adapter. TODO: Add info about connecting adapter first!

• Open the Device Manager.
• Right click on the USB HUB (make sure to select the right one) > Properties > Power management > Uncheck "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power".
• Right click on the COM port > Properties > Power management > Uncheck "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power".

System Preparation

• Install all Windows updates (otherwise GIMX setup may refuse installation).
• Create a system restore point, in case something goes wrong.
