IMPORTANT NOTE: Please make sure that you have the latest firmware downloaded from the http://www.usasupport.philips.com site and have your psa player upgraded according to the instructions provided as below or mentioned in the readme file.

For Windows 98/ME/2000/XP users:

1. Download the psa64_84_5_321_127.zip or psa128_84_5_321_127.zip file.  
2. Please make sure that the player is not connected to the PC.  
3. If your PC already has some psa[64 or psa[128max application installed then un-install it. This way you clean the previous contents.  
4. Now locate the ZIP file that you just downloaded. Open this file. Run the setup.exe from the opened zip file itself (alternatively you can use the Install icon from WinZip). This will start the installation of the application.  
5. Please follow all the instruction on the screen & complete the installation. At the end of installation, if asked to re-start your PC, please do so. Make sure that you remove the battery from the battery compartment of the player.  
6. Connect the player to the PC using the USB cable (without the battery inside).  
7. Go to Start->Program->Nike psa[64 Player & launch Recovery application or go to Start->Program->Nike psa[128 Player & launch Recovery application. 
8. The application will show Recovery window & will be waiting for the player to be connected in recovery mode.  
9. Press the key on the player and keep it pressed.  
10. While the key is pressed, insert the battery and keep the key still pressed. Use of a fresh battery is recommended.  
11. After inserting the battery, continue holding the key pressed till the Recovery Mode application detects the player. For XP users a Found new hardware wizard may prompt you for drivers location, select install from a list or specific location and then direct the computer to look for the drivers at the Drivers sub folder under the folder where you have the zip file extracted.  
12. Now the player is in recovery mode. Unselect the checkbox for Quick Format  
13. Choose Start & the application will update your player with latest FW.  
14. At the end of the process choose Close.  
15. Now your Player is ready. Please disconnect it from the PC & connect it again & start using it.

For Win XP users When you first hook up the player with your PC, there are chances that the OS may not have the new player updated in its internal database and therefore not being able to recognize the player. Follow the below steps & the player should start working:

1. From the desktop, right-click on “My Computer” & select “Properties”.  
2. “System Properties” dialogue will come up. Here choose “Hardware” tab.  
3. From the “Hardware” tab, click on the “Device Manager” button.  
4. “Device Manager” dialogue will come up. Here right-click on the tab “Universal Serial Bus Controller” & choose “Scan for hardware changes”.  
5. Your PC will now scan for new “plug-and-play” hardware. If the drivers are already installed then it will update the drivers automatically.  
6. In some cases, it will show a dialogue box asking for the driver location. Choose the “automatic” way here & the OS should do the rest.

1. The ZIP file, psa64_1_034_320_127.zip or psa128_1_034_321_127.zip that you have downloaded also contains the latest plug-in for Musicmatch.
