About KESS V2 5.017 software:

 

Kess 5.017 came with Ksuite 2.23 software (a CD), saying Windows XP is the best operation to run on. And i did.

 

I opened KSuite 2.23 (E:), ran “ksuite_222_v2” exe.

Ran the setup application

Then Next, Next… to install

I accepted Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 License Terms, and setup in English

Finished installation!
