Windows Logo Testing
During the installation of the DocuPen Software, you may see the message (possibly more than once):The software you are installing for this hardware: device name has not passed Windows Logo testing to verify its compatibility with Windows XP. Continuing the installation of this software may impair or destabilize the correct operation of your system either immediately or in the future.
Cause:
This warning appears because DocuPen has not certified its product drivers in Microsoft's voluntary logo testing program. DocuPen has a rigorous quality assurance program and all of its products are tested above and beyond the requirements of any Microsoft (or similar) test programs.
Solution:
Simply press 'Continue Anyway' at this warning prompt.
Charging the RC800 DocuPen
Make sure the pen is off while charging on the USB.
