 **If you see Pixy in the Device Manager, but you see a defunct device** (a device with an exclamation point), the device driver may not have been installed correctly. This is known to happen when some anti-virus programs are enabled during installation (Avast in particular). Right-click on the defunct Pixy device in the Device Manager and reinstall the drivers by pointing to the pixy.inf file in the C:\Program Files (x86)\PixyMon\driver directory. You may need to uninstall before reinstalling. **If you see Pixy in the Device Manager, but you see a defunct device** (a device with an exclamation point), the device driver may not have been installed correctly.
