Why can't I complete a Guide Remote sync on my Windows ME/98SE/2000/XP
system?
RemoteLinker has been successfully tested on all of the above-mentioned operating
systems. This software was specifically designed to use the USB drivers supplied by
Microsoft in each operating system and does not install drivers for you. Reliability is
assured if the following three conditions are met:
• The system meets the minimum system requirements listed in this FAQ.
• The operating system and all of the USB drivers were properly installed without
errors.
• The system anti-virus software was disabled during the RemoteLinker software
installation/uninstallation.
Please use the Windows Update feature for your PC; particularly for the core, hardware
driver and Internet Explorer patches that Microsoft provides. If you still experience
difficulty syncing your Guide Remote, please contact customer service at 949-450-1670.
