+Alternatively, on systems where libusb works but 'usb_mode_switch' is not
+easily available, the switch can be performed using the 'am7xxx_mode_switch'
+example program from libam7xxx.

+== Testing libam7xxx on MS Windows
+
+All the needed files need to be in the same location:
+  
+  - 'libusb-1.0.dll' from http://sourceforge.net/projects/libusbx/files/releases/1.0.11/Windows/libusbx-1.0.11-win.7z
+
+  - 'libssp-0.dll' from MinGW;
+
+  - 'am7xxx_mode_switch.exe', 'libam7xxx.dll' and 'picoproj.exe' which can all
+    be built by following the instructions in the HACKING.asciidoc document
+    from libam7xxx.
+
+In order to use the device on MS Windows the WinUSB drivers must be installed
+for both the mass storage device and the display device:
+
+  - Download http://sourceforge.net/projects/libwdi/files/zadig/[Zadig], it is
+    a tool to install and replace USB devices filter drivers on MS Windows.
+
+  - From Zadig, select the USB Mass Storage Device relative to the projector
+    and replace the +USBSTOR+ driver with the +WinUSB+ one; keep in mind that
+    from now on the virtual CD-ROM can't be accessed anymore until the
+    +USBSTOR+ Driver is restored.
+
+  - Run 'am7xxx_mode_switch.exe'
+
+  - When the new (display) device shows up, run Zadig and install the +WinUSB+
+    driver for it too.
+
+Now it is possible to run 'picoproj.exe' on Windows.
