Seems you are working under Windows7 (hope 32bits platform) and this symbol there is a part from Windows protection messages. This kind of messages are receiving in Win7 if you try to start a program or install a new software. Try with disable this messages. Go on Control Panel -> User Account Control Settings (look at attachment). Also disable Kaspersky anivirus program. Perhaps someone has another ideas.

Anyway, go to Registry at: \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Siemens\SINEC\LogDevices\ There you will see all installed interfaces. If you try toadd your missing manually threre... But better wait for someone else.Of course format of PC should do the trick... Best regards, Hristo MIhalev

Install the adapter with admin power. An other question: What PC-Adapter do you use? Is the adapter approved for windows 7?
