Well, I'm just not able to get the USB-Blaster to install on my XP machine... It's driving me crazy... The best I can get to is a screen that shows a code(10) error.

Nothing seems to work. I tried the zip file and I get a message saying "The specified location does not contain information about your hardware."
I really need to be able to work from home but I feel like I've tried everything.
