**Step 2:** \\
Right click on //ezLINXPCApp.zip// and extract it.


**Step 3 (Windows XP Only):** \\
If you already have v4 or higher of the .NET Framework or Windows Imaging Component already installed on your machine, skip this step. Windows Imaging Component is required to install and use the Microsoft .NET Framework. This can be downloaded from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=32 (Figure 2 below). For the English installer the file //wic_x86_enu.exe// should be downloaded and ran. This will install Windows Imaging Component on your machine.

**Step 5:** \\
The installer will then check that you have the necessary software on your machine to install the application. If you do not have the necessary software you will be prompted to accept the license agreement for the .NET Framework v4 and/or Windows Installer 3.1 (See Figure 4. below). Accept these license agreements and the required software will be downloaded and installed.
