Important Note: You should not attach USB security devices to the computer until the installation is complete and the system has been rebooted. If you attach the USB key before installing and rebooting, Windows tries to recognize it, finds no driver, gives up and puts the key on a "black list". Later, even if you have installed the drivers, when you attach the key to that port again, Windows checks the black list and just ignores the key. This is a nice gift from Microsoft to System Administrators everywhere: you have to go to the Device Manager and select to update the driver related to the key and then select the already-installed driver to get Windows to recognize the key. If you attach the device to any other port, it should recognize it normally.

Note: all settings are default setting related to installation sample instruction above.
