John,

Here's some additional info.

USB driver install with windows XP unit.
You are more than welcome to download the latest drivers from the download section at: 

http://www.global.yamaha.com/download/usb_midi/index.html#00004

Select: USB-MIDI Driver for Windows(R) XP/2000 and download.
Keep in mind that your browser setting is responsible for where the file is being saved. Yamaha has no control over where the download is going, so the user either has to know, or has to pay attention to how they have their browser set. 

1. Double click on downloaded file.
2. Windows will ask where you would like to extract the files to. Type in c:\ 3. The directory C:\USB-MIDI_Driver\Driver will be created (if you typed anything different in step 2, then the directory will lie somewhere else, and we cannot find it for you). 

Connection:

1. Connect the Yamaha device to the PC USB port.
2. Windows should now search for a driver, and after finding it in the C:\USB-MIDI_Driver\Driver directory. 3. When running XP you may get a notice saying that the driver has not been tested. Microsoft charges to test drivers. We can test our own, they work, so it's ok to click on the 'continue anyway' button. 
4. Windows may want to reboot after this, so go ahead and let it.
5. After windows comes back up, go to control panel/sound and audio, and then to the audio tab. At the bottom, change the selection to Yamaha-USB-01, then make the same midi device change in your sequence software's midi set up.
