===Download and install the GIMX setup file===
* [https://gimx.fr/download/gimx-windows-32bits 32-bit setup], for 32-bit Windows only
* [https://gimx.fr/download/gimx-windows-64bits 64-bit setup], for 64-bit Windows only
The setup file includes the following installers:
* CP210x driver - required when using a CP2102 USB to UART adapter
* USBDK driver - required when using a console that needs controller authentication
'''USBDK may cause instability on some systems, therefore it is advised to create a system restore point before installing it.'''<br />
LibusbK can be used as an alternative. Follow these instructions to use it:
* Rename the libusb-1.0.dll file from the C:\Program Files\GIMX folder to libusb-1.0.dll.bk.
* Download this libusb package: [http://sourceforge.net/projects/msys2/files/REPOS/MINGW_GCC_4_9/x86_64/mingw-w64-x86_64-libusb-1.0.19-2-any.pkg.tar.xz/download link].
* Open it (with [http://www.7-zip.org/ 7zip] for example) and extract the libusb-1.0.dll file from the /mingw64/bin/ folder to the C:\Program Files\GIMX folder.
* Install the libusbk driver as explained below.
Note: the libusb-1.0.dll file will be replaced after updating GIMX. Perform the above steps again to keep using libusbK.

===Install the libusbk driver (Xbox One only)===
It is required to replace the stock controller driver with the libusbk driver.<br />
This prevents Windows from making any request to the controller.<br />
This can easily be done using [http://zadig.akeo.ie/ Zadig]:
* choose "Options->List All Devices"
* select the right device:
{| class="wikitable"
| Console || Device name || USB ID
|-
| Xbox One || "Controller" || 045E:02D1
|}
* select "libusbK" as target driver
* click on the drop down menu, and select "Install Driver"
* click on "Replace Driver"

===Disable power saving for USB devices===

This is required to prevent Windows from turning off the controller or the USB to UART adapter.<br />
Open the Device Manager.<br />
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".<br />
Right click on the COM port > Properties > Power management > Uncheck "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power".
