Notes on installation of the VISTA Patch + SP1 DVD for Panel PC 677B
Edition 02/2009
Notes on installation of the Microsoft Windows Vista Patch + SP1
DVD The Microsoft Windows Vista Patch + SP1 DVD is included with the SIMATIC Panel PC 677B. The keyboard filter driver used by the Panel PC is removed from the Microsoft Windows Vista operating system by Vista Service Pack 1. Among other things, it is necessary to prevent multi-key input. For this reason, the SIMATIC Panel PC includes a modified Microsoft Windows Vista Service Pack DVD that reinstalls the driver. The Microsoft Windows Vista Service Pack 1 that is subsequently installed is completely identical to the version provided by Microsoft. This adapted Service Pack DVD should be used to install the Windows Vista Service Pack even by customers who order the Panel PC version without an operating system to ensure that the filter driver is reinstalled.
Before installing Microsoft Windows Vista Service Pack 1, the following should be noted:
USB keyboard controller driver for Panel PC 677B If the included Windows Vista Microsoft Recovery DVD is used to install or reinstall the operating system on the SIMATIC Panel PC, the included documentation and driver CD must be used to install the USB keyboard controller before Service Pack 1 is installed. This updates the installed driver version 2.2.0.0 to version 2.3.0.0.

Supplement to start-up guide for Panel PC 677B
Installation: •
This setup includes the driver patch and Service Pack 1 for Microsoft Windows Vista.
•
Notice: Installing Windows Vista Service Pack 1 will cause all previous system restore points to be deleted. We therefore recommend that you back up your current system.
•
During the course of installation, the system may restart several times.
•
Important: The installation DVD must not be removed during the individual restarts.
•
The installation process is started by running SETUP.EXE on the DVD.
•
First, the driver patch is installed. This updates the old USB keyboard controller driver to the new version.
•
Because this driver is not certified by Microsoft, a dialog box will appear during installation to ask whether the driver really should be installed. You must confirm this.
Choose “Install this driver software anyway”. •
Subsequently, the installation routine of the Microsoft Windows Vista Service Pack 1 will be started. The installation time should be around 60 minutes, depending on the hardware, and must not be interrupted.
•
After the installation process is complete, remove the DVD from the drive.
