Note About Windows Logo Testing When you install the 0202 USB 2.0 drivers, you will see a dialog box informing you either that the driver has not been certified by Windows Hardware Quality Labs (WHQL), or that the driver is signed by Creative Labs, Inc, and you will be asked if you would like to continue with the installation. The 0202 USB 2.0 audio drivers are not certified by WHQL because the product does not support some of the features that the Microsoft Windows Logo Program requires, most notably Universal Audio Architecture (UAA) and Digital Rights Management (DRM). Despite this, the 0202 USB 2.0 audio drivers have been rigorously tested using the same test procedures that a WHQL qualified driver requires, and it passes in all of the other important categories, including those that measure the relative stability of the driver. So, it is perfectly safe to install these drivers on your computer.
